Step-on AFO
What is Step-on AFO?
The Step-On Family of products is a range of innovative ankle-foot-orthoses (AFOs) for the treatment of drop foot. The unique feature of these AFOs is that they are articulated and offer adjustable dorsiflexion assistance, while being off-the-shelf products. This way, they allow essential functional movements during the gait cycle, while at the same time providing the exact amount of control required by each patient, at every stage of their rehabilitation programme.
Features:
- Articulated AFOs, hinges that allow ROM between dorsiflexion 22° and 11° plantar flexion.
- Available with lateral, medial, or bilateral hinges.
- Easily adjustable dorsiflexion assistance allows continuous optimization of gait biomechanics through rehabilitation process.
- Extremely lightweight, polypropylene construction.
- Can be easily thermoformed to shape or trimmed back.
- High-quality liners and foam pads for enhanced skin integrity and comfort.
- Hook-and-loop straps allow fastening of the orthosis with just one hand.
- Liners and foam pads can be removed and cleaned easily.
- Unilateral hinge AFOs fit easily in standard footwear – no need for larger shoe size.
- Hinges protected from debris by neoprene sleeves.
- Hinges can be disassembled for cleaning and servicing.
- Full list of spare parts is available.
- Available in a range of sizes to fit individuals up to 100 Kg.
