I-PRO shoe?

Subject: I-PRO shoe?

The doc is describing an offloading shoe.  He pronounces it "I-PRO" but I can't find that anywhere.  The closest I can get is in my Stedman's Equipment Words, "ipos heel relief shoe," but the doctor specifically says it is to shift weight TO the heel, for a forefoot amputation site wound.  Anybody?

In a wound care clinic note, the doc is recommending what sounds like a "High Pro" offloading shoe.  I can't find that as a brand name anywhere.  Can anyone help?  Thanks!

orthopedics--type of shoe--tarsal? Harstal? Harshall? Partial?
Subject: orthopedics--type of shoe--tarsal? Harstal? Harshall? Partial?

As you can see, I am really reaching for this one.  This is a type of shoe that is worn when someone has an ankle fracture. I'm thinking it could be "tarsal shoe" but then it almost sounds like "Harstel shoe" or something else entirely. I need an expert on shoe types and/or orthopedics to help me!
