Dear List-serve,
I am currently trying to find a manufacturer that produces a wider foot/foot shell. The patient is currently in an OB SACH and has already had material added to the dorsum and sides of the shell to increase its width but to no avail. She has to wear wider shoes for an issue on her contralateral foot. Does anybody no of a foot/shell they have used in a similar situation? Current foot is approx 8.5 to 9 cm in width at the forefoot/mets.
Thanks in advance,
Andrew Sawers
