ABSTRACT:
A walking iron for attachment to the lower extremity of a foot or leg cast which bottom supports the limb and enables mobility of an injured person. The walking iron has a fixed, cast-engaging member adjustably connected to a ground-engaging member in such a manner that pivotal and longitudinal movement may be effected therebetween, thereby enabling lateral as well as fore and aft movement of one member respective to the other to be achieved. This expedient provides for center of gravity adjustment between the two members so that the walking iron can be specially fitted to each individual cast in the most optimum manner for each patient.
