摘要

The preventive device for fixation of the feet in the children for the treatment of clubfoot contains a pair of orthopedic shoes with the plates on their insoles, the spacer mechanism and the unit for diverting the feet into the calculated position. The device is equipped with stimulators of reflex areas of the feet designed as the foil plates made of metals 0.1-0.2 mm in thickness with electret cover prepared of the oxides of the metals with activated electrostatic negative charge with its density being close or similar to the density of the analogous charge of the biological structures. The stimulators are attached onto the upper layer of insoles or below insoles.
