Here we report our study of the clinical applications of the shock absorber for the orthosis. We have already reported the result of basic reserch of the shock absorber at the 4th Japanese Medical Shoes Congress, and the result shows the shock absorber was effective in the knee and hip joint.In this paper, we examined the clinical effect of the shock absorber on the patients who had pain in their lower extremities, and provided 51 shoe inserts for them at random.The shock absorber was effective and reduced their pain, nearly 80% of them. We use "ZDEL" for the shock absorber. "ZEDL" has an ideal character for the orthosis such as shock absorbing ability, light weight, and easy modeling and bond.We also reported another applications of the shock absorber for orthosis etc. such as lateral wedge for the gonarthrosis, heel of the cast, cast brace, PTB, Sarmiento brace for the tibial fracture, and the tip rubber of the crutches.
