  • Integral strap handling device for a leg cast
    Patent number: 5911696
    Abstract: An integral strap handling device for a casted foot includes an instep strap extending from one side of the ankle to the other over a casted foot, a heel strap extending from one side of the ankle to the other around the heel, and a sole strap extending from one side of the ankle to the other under a casted foot. The instep, heel, and sole straps are connected to each other via rings to allow movement of the straps so as to provide a secure fit for the integral strap when placed over cast.
