A double-action ankle joint ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) is a type of orthotic device designed to support and stabilize the ankle and foot. It features two separate joints, one for dorsiflexion (lifting the foot up) and one for plantarflexion (pointing the foot down). This dual-joint mechanism allows for more natural and controlled movement of the ankle, helping to address various conditions affecting gait and stability. Here are some key points about a double-action AFO: Functionality: The double-action joints provide the ability to control both upward and downward motion of the foot. This helps in managing conditions like foot drop, where the foot cannot be lifted properly, or other gait abnormalities. Customization: These AFOs are often custom-made to fit the individual's specific anatomy and needs. Adjustments can be made to fine-tune the range of motion and alignment. Materials: They are typically made from lightweight and durable materials such as thermoplastics or carbon fiber, which offer a balance of strength and flexibility. Indications: They are used for conditions like cerebral palsy, stroke, peripheral neuropathy, or other neurological or musculoskeletal disorders that affect ankle and foot function. Design: The double-action mechanism allows for controlled movement and can help in improving gait, stability, and overall mobility.

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.

Foot Sensor Knee joint KAFO Indian Made  Stance control recently listed its products on IndiaMART to reach out to Patients and Doctors all across the world with its products.  Products:  Waltronic Stance Control Electro-Magnetic Knee ankle foot orthoses (KAFO)  Waltronic Stance Control Electronic KAFO  A foot sensor will help to lock and unlock the knee with proper timing to give natural gait.  It has battery which need regular charging 4 to 6 hour to operate the orthosis

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.

Active KAFO  The Active plus-Knee comes furnished with a pneumatic spring on the lateral side of the joint to assist with knee extension during the swing phase of gait.  A medial knee joint is also included to help control knee alignment and give Medio lateral stability.  The active plus -Knee is a free motion knee joint that is designed to provide extension assist, not prevent knee flexion. Available with your choice of a 75N, 125N (for standard applications), or 175N pneumatic spring.

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
