This paper presents the development of an innovative and cost-effective 3-D printed Foot Abduction Orthosis (FAO) for the treatment of infant clubfoot, specifically addressing the challenges faced in resource-constrained regions such as Ethiopia. The Ponseti technique of treating clubfoot, also known as congenital talipes equinovarus, necessitates the use of FAOs, which are often prohibitively expensive in low-resource settings.
