Wearing instructions: Use as directed by doctor, physio or orthotist. Wear in slowly (2 hours at a time for the first 3-4 days) and release straps if intense calf pain or cramping occurs. Ensure the heel is as far back in the AFO as possible and secured in with firm straps. Can be worn with a sock.

Why this splint? 

The OAPL Paediatric Night Splint offers gentle stretch, heel relief, and ankle alignment making it ideal for toe walking, neuromuscular conditions, and post-surgical recovery during sleep.

Key features:

  • Holds the ankle in a plantar-grade or slightly dorsiflexed position to prevent contractures and deformities.
  • Soft interior padding enhances comfort and reduces pressure on the heel.
  • Lycra lined straps prevent skin irritation and allow secure, adjustable fitting.
  • Centre-Release Buckles make it easy to use for caregivers and parents.
  • The Kydex Brace provides structural stability.
  • The EVA Walking Soles allows for limited ambulation and safe transfers.

Benefits:

  • Prevents Plantar Flexion Contractures by maintaining proper foot alignment during sleep or rest.
  • Relieves heel pressure and reduces discomfort and risk of pressure sores.
  • Ideal for children recovering from surgery or managing neuromuscular conditions.
  • Designed for gradual wear-in and can be worn with socks.
  • Easy to Apply and Adjust and simplifies daily use for families and clinicians.

Indications/Conditions:

  • Prevention of plantar flexion contractures
  • Relief of heel pressure areas
  • Support for children with neuromuscular conditions (e.g. cerebral palsy)
  • Management of idiopathic toe walking
  • Post-surgical immobilisation of the ankle
  • Improvement of ankle dorsiflexion range during rest or sleep
  • Support for children with foot deformities or high muscle tone

Care Instructions:

  • Spot clean the foam straps using a damp cloth and mild soap.
