DAB CTEV SHOES

Following the manipulation and casting phase, the feet are fitted with open-toed straight-laced DAB CTEV shoes attached to a Dennis Brown bar. The affected foot is abducted (externally rotated) to 70° with the unaffected foot set at 45° of abduction. The DAB CTEV shoes also have a heel counter bumper to prevent the heel from slipping out of the shoe. The shoes are worn for 23 hours a day for 3 months and are worn at night and during naps for up to 3 years.
