Indications: This device is indicated for metatarsal, forefoot, and calcaneous fractures, forefoot sprains, and grades 1, 2, & 3 distal fractures of the tibia and fibula that are reduced/stable or that have some bridging callous.
Contraindications: This device is contraindicated for unstable fractures or for fractures of the proximal tibia or fibula. The Bledsoe EZ-Set Hinge used on any Bledsoe Walking Boot is contra-indicated for unstable fractures or for fractures of the proximal tibia or fibula and is also contraindicated for use during weight bearing in a plantar flexed position for Achilles tendon injuries or repairs (see Achilles Tendon Boot). When fixed or locked in any degree of plantar flexion, all Bledsoe hinged boots should be used non-weight bearing only.
