The Darco Peg-AssistTM System

The solution to off-loading pressure from any area of the plantar surface of the foot




Top of Page		   THE DARCO PEG-ASSISTTM SYSTEM

Built around a multi-purpose removable peg insole that effectively off-loads the plantar aspect of the foot, the Darco Peg-AssistTM System is the cost-effective solution you have been looking for.

Indications for use
  • Wound Care The perfect choice for the treatment of diabetic ulcerations because it minimizes pressure on wounds for faster healing while allowing patients to maintain their mobility.
  • Post Op Care Eliminates "lever effect" on osteotomies of the first metatarsal by off-loading the first metaphalangeal joint. The insole can also be cut flush with the metatarsal heads to "float" the toes when K-wires are present.
  • Pain Management Provides short-term pain management for patients suffering due to bony abnormalities (e.g. prominent metatarsal heads) or other painful conditions that may later be surgically corrected.
Key Features

  • Constructed of an 18mm combination of Plastazote®, Poron® and multi-foam to provide the perfect combination of shock absorption and mobility.
  • Pegs can be removed to off-load pressure from any area of the plantar surface of the foot.
  • After peg removal, the Poron® cover remains intact to eliminate the incidence of ring oedema and to assist in supporting the area.
  • The Peg Support Board adheres to the black side of the insole to keep pegs from collapsing and keep the off-loaded area intact.
  • Removable toe cover helps to ensure that the forefoot remains clean, dry and free of foreign objects.
