Neurotronic KAFO  The Neurotronic knee joint system is a sophisticated electro mechanical knee control component designed specifically for people with knee extensor weakness, knee instability or loss of knee control and sets the benchmark for this class of limb control technology.  The Neurotronic is incorporated into a discreet lightweight carbon frame, locking automatically in stance phase and free moving in swing phase. In stance phase, the Neurotronic stabilises the knee in any position to enable the user to safely load the effected limb even when the knee joint is flexed or bent. During swing phase, the Neurotronic allows the knee to move freely to achieve a natural gait pattern without the compensations seen with conventional designs.  The electromechanical knee joint system is controlled either by a pressure sensor under the foot piece or by motion sensors integrated in the controller. The control mechanism incorporates an inclinometer and accelerometer motion sensors that detect the movement and position of the lower leg.  When standing with the orthosis or just before heel strike, the motion sensors lock the Neurotronic system knee joint. The motion detection is sensitive to speed and the joint will lock regardless of length and speed of steps and regardless of a hill gradient.

HKAFO  The term HKAFO is an acronym that stands for hipknee-ankle-foot-orthosis and describes the part of the body that this device encompasses. This device is basically a KAFO with the addition of a hip joint and pelvic section.  The addition of the hip joint and pelvic section provides control to selected hip motions. These selected motions about the hip are front to back, side to side, and rotation. One reason the hip section is added to a KAFO is to reduce or minimize the risk of the hip moving out of proper position or dislocating.  Another common reason is to stabilize the hip and lower spine in cases where the patient is weak or paralyzed. One common application of HKAFO is RGO, or, reciprocal gait orthosis, which helps move one hip upon moving the other hip and encouraging a normal gait.

Safety Stride KAFO  The SafetyStride is a mechanical stance control orthotic knee joint that utilizes a low-profile cabling system to automatically unlock itself at the end of stance phase. The key feature of the SafetyStride is its ability to resist knee flexion at any angle. The SafetyStride does not require full 180° knee extension to resist knee flexion in stance phase. Designed to unlock at terminal stance, an internal lever re-engages during swing phase to ensure knee joint stability prior to heel contact. Individuals who intermittently fail to reach full extension will now have the added security and stability they require while ambulating. The SafetyStride works in conjunction with the FullStride and can be easily installed on a FullStride equipped KAFO.  It give more natural Gait  If we add a Pneumatic cylinder it will assit the quadriceps muscle and patient feel more comfortable.

Stance control KAFO (Full Stride)  The FullStride is a mechanical stance control orthotic knee joint that utilizes a low-profile cabling system to automatically unlock at the end of stance phase. At the end of swing phase, when the orthotic knee joint reaches full extension, the locking mechanism reengages to provide knee stability for stance phase. When necessary, the stance control capability of the FullStride can be easily converted into a traditional automatic bail lock.  It give more natural Gait  If we add a Pneumatic cylinder it will assit the quadriceps muscle and patient feel more comfortable.

KAFO with Offset Knee Joint drop lock type  A knee-ankle-foot orthosis (KAFO) consists of a plastic AFO or an AFO with metal uprights, a mechanical knee joint, and a plastic thigh cuff or 2 metal thigh bands. KAFO’s can be used in quadriceps paralysis or weakness to maintain knee stability and control flexible genu valgum or varum.  KAFO’s are also used to limit the weight bearing of the thigh, leg, and foot with quadrilateral or ischial containment brim. A KAFO is more difficult to don and doff than an AFO, so it is not recommended for patients who have moderate-to-severe cognitive dysfunction.  The most common causes of muscle weakness include: -Poliomyelitis -Muscular Dystrophy -Multiple Sclerosis -Spinal cord injury

KAFO with drop lock Imported quality:  The term KAFO is an acronym that stands for Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis and describes the part of the body that this device encompasses. This device extends from the thigh to the foot and is generally used to control instabilities in the lower limb by maintaining alignment and controlling motion. Instabilities can be either due to skeletal problems: broken bones, arthritic joints, bowleg, knock-knee, knee hyperextension or muscular weakness and paralysis. With this in mind, the indications for the use of a KAFO are many and varied and any one particular design is specific to the needs of the person it is made for.  It is very light weight and more durable.
