ASO® Flex-Hinge™ Ankle Stabilizer

The ASO® Flex-Hinge™ Ankle Stabilizer from Med Spec is available at USA Medical Supply in West Springfield, MA. The ASO Flex-Hinge combines the proven technology of the ASO’s stabilizing strap system with an articulated plastic shell for superior ankle stabilization. The internal plastic shell with hinge is built into a ballistic nylon boot and flexes to conform to the anatomy of the ankle, which greatly enhances patient comfort and allows the stabilizing straps to restrain inversion and eversion.

Common uses include:

• inversion or eversion ankle sprains
• syndesmotic ankle sprain (high ankle sprain)
• medial or lateral ankle instability
• subtalar joint instability

Highlights

Internal Plastic Hinge

The plastic hinge material contours to the anatomy and has excellent durability. The Flex-Hinge’s unique design works synergistically with the stabilizing straps to resist eversion and inversion of the ankle while also applying circumferential compression around the distal tibiofibular joint.

Stabilizing Straps

The stabilizing straps are now angled to better contour above the malleoli for added comfort and control. Nylon stabilizing straps form a complete figure-eight to help stabilize the subtalar and talocrural joints.

CoolFlex Achilles Pad & Tongue

CoolFlex™ padding has been increased on the inside of the boot along the Achilles tendon to provide greater comfort. The shoe lace is attached to the tongue so lace is always centered.

Invisible Seam

For improved comfort, the seam is now positioned along the rear portion of the boot. There is no longer a seam under the foot.
