Orthosis

A static ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) is an orthopedic device designed to support, align, and improve the function of the ankle and foot. Unlike dynamic AFOs, which allow for movement, static AFOs are rigid or semi-rigid and provide fixed support to maintain the position of the foot and ankle. Key Features Design and Materials: Static AFOs are typically made from materials such as plastic or carbon fiber. These materials create a sturdy framework that is custom-molded to the individual's foot and leg, ensuring a proper fit and maximum support. Purpose: The primary goals of a static AFO are to correct or prevent deformities, provide stability, and relieve pain. They are commonly used to manage conditions such as: Drop Foot: A condition where the foot cannot be lifted properly, making walking difficult. Cerebral Palsy: A disorder characterized by muscle stiffness and control issues that affect gait and foot positioning. Stroke: To assist with walking by supporting the affected leg and foot. Post-Surgical Recovery: To immobilize the ankle and foot after surgery, promoting proper healing. Components: Footplate: Covers the sole of the foot and provides essential support. Calf Strap: Secures the AFO to the leg, usually adjustable for comfort. Padding: Often lined with foam or other cushioning materials to enhance comfort and prevent skin irritation. Benefits Improved Function: Helps individuals maintain or enhance their walking ability by keeping the foot in a functional position. Injury Prevention: Reduces the risk of falls and injuries by stabilizing the foot and ankle. Deformity Management: Prevents or corrects deformities by maintaining proper alignment of the foot and ankle. Fitting and Customization For optimal effectiveness, static AFOs are custom-fitted to each individual. This usually involves taking precise measurements or molds of the foot and leg to ensure the device supports the unique anatomical structure and needs of the user. In summary, a static AFO is managing various foot and ankle conditions by providing fixed support and alignment. Its success depends on a proper fit and regular use, making it an essential component of many orthopedic and rehabilitation strategies.  Address:  House NO -27, Gita Nagar, Society, Opposite Sanghvi Tower, Adajan Rd, Adajan, Surat, Gujarat 395009  Flat no. 1, Laxmi Mahal Apartment, 2163, near Neelayam Theatre, Sadashiv Peth, Pune, Maharashtra 411030  Plot No 17, 40, Rajdanga Sarat Pk Rd, near MEGHALAYA HOUSE, next to Pearl dental clinic, Shantipally, Block-BA, P.S:, Kasba, Kolkata, West Bengal 700107  46, Mona Shopping Center,, Andheri West,, near Navrang Theater, Mumbai, Maharashtra 400053 9377466476,8128996476 evolution healthcarepvt ltd

Diabetic Foot Solution

Charcot foot, which is a condition that affects the bones in the foot and ankle and often leads to joint deformities and instability, specialized insoles can be crucial in providing support and preventing further damage. Here are a few types of insoles that might be used: Custom Orthotics: These are specially designed to match the unique contours of your feet. They help distribute pressure evenly, stabilize the foot, and prevent further deformities. A podiatrist or orthotist can create these based on a detailed assessment of your foot structure and needs. Offloading Insoles: These are designed to reduce pressure on specific areas of the foot. For Charcot foot, offloading insoles can help redistribute pressure away from the affected areas to help prevent ulcers and further complications. Rocker Sole Insoles: Rocker soles have a rounded heel-to-toe transition which can help reduce stress on the foot while walking. This can be particularly helpful for individuals with Charcot foot to improve gait and reduce discomfort. Cushioned Insoles: Providing additional cushioning can help absorb shock and reduce the impact on the foot. This can be beneficial if you experience pain or discomfort due to Charcot foot. Rigid Insoles: Sometimes, a more rigid insole is needed to offer strong support and prevent excessive movement of the foot, which can be helpful in managing the condition and preventing further deformity.

Orthotic

A Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis (KAFO) is a custom made brace that starts above the knee and extends all the way down the leg to the end of the toes. These braces will normally include a knee joint and possibly an ankle joint as well. A KAFO is prescribed by your physician when there is significant weakness and/or instability at the knee and ankle joints. The KAFO will allow patients to stand by locking the knee joint in the brace when the thigh muscles are too weak to support the knee. This brace can also reduce significant knee hyperextension (genu recurvatum) during the gait cycle. KAFOs can be extended to the hip to provide additional support to the hip joint if necessary.  The KAFO is commonly used in the treatment of: 1-Blount’s Disease 2-Genu Recurvatum 3-Post-Polio 4-Spinal Cord Injury 5-Arthrogryposis 6-Cerebral Palsy 7-Polio 8-Spina Bifida  At your initial assessment you will meet with your Orthotist to go through a complete assessment of your strength and range of motion and undergo an observational gait analysis. There are many different designs of KAFOs, each with different functions and levels of support. In collaboration with your Orthotist at OrthoProActive and your health team, we will determine which KAFO design will help to provide you with the best functional outcomes.

AFO WITHOUT JOINT:  Ankle foot orthoses AFOs are external biomechanical devices utilized on lower limbs to stabilize the joints, improve the gait and physical functioning of the affected lower limb. AFO is used as supportive devices and aid for ambulation through different gait stages by providing foot clearance, used to limit or assist ankle and foot ROM like; dorsiflexion, plantar flexion, improve balance, decrease the risk of falling, help with weak musculature of lower legs, and to return to previous activity or facilitate patient mobility.  They are found in different types and different materials and can be modified according to the use and the development of the person if it is used for children. They made from thermoformed plastic material that enables to add modification and adjustments. AFOs are used as night splints to prevent contractures in some cases, patients with stroke, and other neurological conditions such as SCI and children with cerebral palsy.

Rehabilitation Aid

Rehabilitation aids are devices or equipment designed to assist individuals in their recovery process following an injury, surgery, or illness. These aids help improve mobility, strength, flexibility, and overall functionality. Here are some common types of rehabilitation aids: Exercise Equipment: Various exercise tools and machines can aid in rehabilitation. These include resistance bands, therapy balls, balance boards, and pedal exercisers. They help strengthen muscles, improve range of motion, and enhance balance and coordination. Walking Aids: As mentioned earlier, walking aids like canes, crutches, walkers, and knee walkers/scooters can assist individuals in regaining mobility during their rehabilitation journey. Orthotic Devices: Orthotic devices are supportive braces or splints used to immobilize or support specific body parts during the healing process. They can provide stability and protect joints, muscles, or ligaments. Examples include knee braces, ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs), wrist splints, and back braces. Range of Motion (ROM) Devices: ROM devices help individuals regain or maintain joint mobility. They can be passive or active. Passive devices, such as continuous passive motion (CPM) machines, move the joints through a controlled range of motion without the individual's effort. Active devices, like pulley systems or therapy bands, require the individual to actively move the joint. Assistive Devices for Activities of Daily Living (ADL): These aids help individuals perform everyday tasks independently during their rehabilitation. Examples include reachers/grabbers, dressing aids, adaptive utensils, shower chairs, and raised toilet seats. Electrical Stimulation Devices: Electrical stimulation devices use low-level electrical currents to stimulate nerves and muscles. They can be used to manage pain, prevent muscle atrophy, improve muscle strength, or promote tissue healing. Balance and Coordination Tools: Balance boards, stability discs, and wobble cushions are aids that help improve balance, coordination, and proprioception. It's important to note that the specific rehabilitation aids needed may vary depending on the individual's condition, the stage of rehabilitation, and the guidance of healthcare professionals. Consulting with a physiotherapist, occupational therapist, or healthcare provider is crucial to determine the most appropriate rehabilitation aids for an individual's specific needs and goals.
