Ambulatory Abduction Dorsiflexion Mechanism (ADM)

Intended Use

The Ambulatory Abduction Dorsiflexion Mechanism (ADM) comprises an ADM device and
ambulatory footwear that has been made or adapted to connect to an ADM. The Ambulatory ADM
may be worn unilaterally or bilaterally by patients with a range of conditions affecting the main joints
and motions of the ankle and foot - specifically the sub-talar and tibio-talar joints. Ambulatory ADMs
are suitable for a range of conditions that result in an abnormal (typically supinated) gait. This includes
Clubfoot and some neurological and muscular conditions. Ambulatory ADMs should be used as
directed by a qualified clinician to achieve a specific purpose, such as maintenance of improved foot
position or range of motion and gait improvement.

Device Function and Purpose

Ambulatory ADMs alter the resting foot / ankle position and gait. Gait alterations typically include
reversal of a tendency to supinate (ie., for the foot to turn inwards and downwards). Expected gait
alterations include a lengthening of the stride, prevention of foot-drop, improved heel-strike and
a reduction of inward rotation at the hip and knee. Patients with neurological conditions may also
experience improved balance, endurance and confidence. Range of motion improvements may also be
achieved with prolonged consistent use.
