'dorsi flexion'

AFO WITH PP JOINT  It give only planter flexion movement  Dorsiflexion is ZERO movement  It prescribe for - Foot drop - Hemiplegic paraplegic -Medio lateral Instability - Where foot slab occur.

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.

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.

Limited motion AFO  Ankle equinus is a condition in which the upward bending motion (dorsiflexion) of the ankle joint is limited. Those with ankle equines have a restriction in flexibility in bringing the top of the foot toward the front of the leg. Equinus can occur in one or both feet.  It is use for Medio lateral instability  Use in foot drop  Hemiplegic and para plegic  Fracture

DOUBLE ANKLE JOINT:  It assist both planter flexion and dorsi flexion  Light in weight and easy to operate  Donning and doffing also easy

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.

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.
