CTEV JESS EXTERNAL FIXATOR 

The Jess External Fixator, often used in the treatment of congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), also known as clubfoot, is a type of orthopedic device designed to correct deformities in the foot and ankle. Here’s an overview of its use and functionality:

### Jess External Fixator for CTEV

1. **Purpose**:

   - The Jess (Joshi's External Stabilization System) external fixator is used to gradually correct the deformities associated with CTEV. This condition involves the foot being twisted out of its normal shape or position.

2. **Components**:

   - The fixator consists of a series of rods, rings, and wires that are attached externally to the patient's limb. These components can be adjusted to apply precise and controlled forces to the bones and soft tissues.

3. **Mechanism**:

   - The device works by applying gradual, continuous pressure to the foot, which helps to slowly correct the position and alignment of the bones and joints over time. Adjustments are made periodically by the healthcare provider to ensure proper correction.

4. **Procedure**:

   - The fixator is surgically attached to the bones of the foot and lower leg. The surgical procedure is followed by a series of adjustments that the doctor performs to correct the foot deformity.

5. **Advantages**:

   - Allows for precise control over the correction process.

   - Can be adjusted without the need for repeated surgeries.

   - Helps in treating complex deformities that may not respond well to traditional casting methods.

6. **Post-Operative Care**:
