Short Type Pneumatic Walking Boot (Walker) Analysis Report

Device Description and Identification

The product in the analyzed visuals is a medical support product used in the field of orthopedics and traumatology, namely a short walking boot (Short Walker / Moon Boot). The product is an ankle-type model, referred to as “Short”, designed to immobilize the foot and ankle region, featuring a rigid plastic exoskeleton. The round embossed structure on the front liner of the product indicates that it is pneumatic (air-supported), meaning it contains an inflatable air bladder system.

Areas of Use and Purpose

This medical boot is used as an alternative or supplementary to cast treatment for lower extremity injuries. Primary areas of use include:

• Ankle sprains and stabilization.
• Metatarsal fractures and stress fractures.
• Soft tissue injuries and edema control.
• Immobilization and protection during post-operative recovery.
• Stable foot and ankle fractures.

Thanks to its air-cushioned structure, it aims to provide a comfortable recovery process by allowing tightness adjustment according to the limb’s swelling (edema) condition.

Quantity Information

In the visuals, there is 1 unit of a short walking boot (it is generally standard for these products to be compatible with either the right or left foot, but side differentiation cannot be clearly made from the visual). No other parts or a pair are visible.

Originality and Quality Assessment

The product appears to be constructed in accordance with medical standards. The quality of plastic injection, stitching details, and the structure of the hook-and-loop (Velcro) components indicate that the product is a standard medical production. As no distinctive logo or label belonging to a specific brand could be identified in the visual, it has been observed that the material quality is up to industrial standards, regardless of the brand.

General Condition and Cosmetic State

The general condition of the product has been assessed as second-hand (used):

• Cleanliness: There is dust and slight dirt marks on the outer plastic surfaces due to use. However, there is no excessively dirty appearance from a hygienic perspective; it is in a cleanable condition.
• Physical Deformation: Superficial friction marks and hairline scratches due to use are visible on the gray hard plastic casing, especially on the sole edges and heel section. No deep cracks, fractures, or detached parts that would affect functionality have been detected in the casing.
• Inner Liner: The form of the gray sponge/fabric liner is intact. No significant tears or unraveling are visible inside.

Mechanical Component Analysis

Upon examining the product’s mechanical components:

• Straps and Fasteners: The hook-and-loop (Velcro) straps that secure the product are in place. No rust or breaks are observed in the metal or hard plastic buckles (in the visible parts in the visuals).
• Pneumatic System: The air pump integrated into the inner liner (the button-shaped inflation mechanism) appears visually intact. However, since its air retention capacity (sealing) cannot be tested through the visuals, only its physical integrity can be stated as preserved.
• Sole Structure: It features a rocker sole design, which provides natural gait simulation. The condition of the sole’s rubber appears moderate.

Electronic Components and Battery

This product operates entirely on mechanical and pneumatic principles. It does not contain any electronic circuits, screens, batteries, or power inputs. Therefore, there is no risk of electronic failure.

Size and Compatibility

A label indicating the product’s size (such as S, M, L, XL) is not legible in the visuals. Structurally, it is suitable for “adult” use. Based on visual proportions, there is a high probability of it being a medium or large size, but precise data cannot be provided as the label is not readable.

Potential Failure Risk

As a result of visual analysis, no critical damage (such as a body fracture) that would prevent immediate use has been detected in the product. The following potential risks should be considered:

• The possibility of the air bladder (aircell) system leaking air over time (cannot be detected visually, only apparent during use).
• The possibility of the adhesive property of the hook-and-loop straps diminishing over time.

Apart from these potential conditions, the product’s structural integrity is preserved, and it appears suitable for use.
