Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis.
Our aim was to develop and evaluate a new antipronation foot orthosis that addressed problems perceived by clinicians and users with existing foot orthoses. Clinicians and users were engaged to develop a user specification for the orthosis, and orthotic geometry and materials were developed using clinical reasoning. The orthotic material properties were tested and the ability of the orthosis to...
متن کاملDevelopment of an ankle-foot orthosis with an oil damper.
The purpose of the present study was to develop an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) that satisfies the requirements for an AFO for patients with hemiplegia as determined in a previous study. An oil damper has been introduced as an assistive device. The oil damper provides a resistive moment to plantar flexion of the ankle joint during initial stance on the paretic side. This function improves the insu...
متن کاملNewly designed computer controlled knee-ankle-foot orthosis (Intelligent Orthosis).
The authors have developed a knee-ankle-foot orthosis with a joint unit that controls knee movements using a microcomputer (Intelligent Orthosis). The Intelligent Orthosis was applied to normal subjects and patients, and gait analysis was performed. In the gait cycle, the ratio of the stance phase to the swing phase was less in gait with the knee locked using a knee-ankle-foot orthosis than in ...
متن کاملThe Effects of Modified Ankle Foot Orthosis on balance in Healthy Older People
Introduction: Balance impairment and related injuries are common in elderly and patients with neurologic disorders. Ankle foot orthosies can influence on balance via improvement of movement disorders. Therefore the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of modified ankle-foot orthosis on balance performance in healthy elderly. Materials & Methods: The research was conducted on ten ...
