Indications
Suitable for drop foot, particularly that associated with acute supination of the foot due to spasticity e.g.:
- following as stroke
- traumatic brain injury
- with multiple sclerosis
- neuromuscular atrophy
- isolated peroneal paralysis
Effects
- Thermoplastic ankle foot orthosis for the treatment of patients with an acute supination position of the foot and/or with the beginnings of emerging spasticity
- The support provided by the closure straps, combined with the elastic pronation strap provides effective correction, even with acute hypertonicity in the calf muscles
- The elastic strap can yield to the pressure when spasticity occurs and, after relaxation, continues to hold the foot in a neutral position
