摘要:
An elastic metal strip aligning a longitudinal direction with a rolling direction of a cold-rolled plate is collected and processed to a shape including a correction plate with the longitudinal direction of the elastic metal as a width direction of a nail and a plurality of tongue strips protruded from the edge of the correction plate near the nail tip. Each tongue strip is folded and bent to form a hooked claw with a double structure of a folding part and a bending part. A nail tip of a deformed nail is inserted between the hooked claw and the correction plate to apply a restoring force of elasticity in the correction plate to the deformed nail as correction ability for deformed nails. A wrought wire rod can be used instead of a cold-rolled plate and a Cu—Al—Mn type shape-memory alloy may further be used as a raw material.

A guide wire includes a distal core member made of a ferrous alloy which has shape memory properties and superelasticity. The ferrous alloy preferably includes substantially two phases, and has a difference of 100° C. or less between an Af point and an Ms point in a thermal hysteresis of martensitic transformation and reverse transformation. The guide wire may include a proximal core member made of an iron-containing alloy and having a higher modulus of elasticity than the distal core member. The two core members may be joined together by welding to form a core of the guide wire.

Provided is a device for correcting hallux valgus using a shape memory alloy, which can be easily worn and exert a large and adequate correcting force to thereby correct hallux valgus or hallux varus. The device for correcting hallux valgus comprises a correcting plate formed of a shape memory alloy and attachment members for attaching the same, said attachment members each being formed of an elastic fabric bag, wherein said correcting plate is attached, from the inward direction of the hallux, to the foot body and to the hallux body respectively by the first attachment member and the second attachment member, and an opening is formed in the part of the correcting plate being in contact with the first metatarsophangeal joint so that the hallux is corrected by positioning outward using the periphery of the opening as a supporting point.
