A Passive Dynamic Ankle-foot Orthosis Approach to Enhanced Gait Function
Our keynote lecture will be given by Dr. Steven Stanhope, director of the Physical Disabilities Branch at the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Stanhope will discuss findings from a series of research projects related to customization and selective laser sintering construction of passive dynamic ankle-foot orthoses to meet a patient’s individual needs and the biomechanical basis for adapted co...
متن کاملGait Mode Recognition Using an Inertia Measurement Unit on a Powered Ankle-foot-orthosis
One of the challenges that any powered lower limb orthotic or prosthetic device must address for activities in the real world is its ability to recognize gait modes (level ground walking, stairs, ramps, etc.) and adapt to mode changes promptly. There are two critical aspects of this problem. First, the gait mode has to be recognized at the earliest possible time to prevent potential misfiring (...
متن کاملGait improvement of hemiplegic patients using an ankle-foot orthosis with assistance of heel rocker function.
The ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) with oil damper, GaitSolution (GS), was previously developed to make heel rocker function possible during the gait of hemiplegic patients. To clarify the characteristics of patients who show adaptation to GS use, a questionnaire was completed by the clinicians responsible for 99 patients with hemiplegia who participated in this study. Clinicians completed items con...
متن کاملEffects on Foot External Rotation of the Modified Ankle-Foot Orthosis on Post-Stroke Hemiparetic Gait
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of heel-opened ankle foot orthosis (HOAFO) on hemiparetic gait after stroke, especially on external foot rotation, and to compare the effects of HOAFO with conventional plastic-AFO (pAFO) and barefoot during gait. METHODS This cross-over observational study involved 15 hemiparetic patients with external rotation of the affected foot. All subjects were able to...
متن کاملEffects of the ankle angle of an ankle foot orthosis on foot pressure during the gait in healthy adults
[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the ankle angle of an ankle foot orthosis (AFO) on foot pressure during the gait in healthy adults. [Subjects] Sixteen healthy males with neither orthopedic nor neurological problems participated in this study. [Methods] Subjects walked on a walkway at a self-selected pace with an AFO set at four different ankle angles (-5°, ...
