Rx: Triplanar Control Dynamic Response Graphite Composite
AFO
Dx: To be utilized for a person with physical
limitations of the lower extremities. Those limitations
include skeletal deviations that lead to deformities and
functional deficits that impair normal safe walking. This
design can work well with any neuromuscular disorder,
paralysis, or weakness. It outperforms conventional bracing
regardless of materials composition.
Intended usage: to prevent
deformities by decreasing deforming forces with multiple and
proper three point pressure systems on each structural
deficit in each of the three cardinal planes. The corrective
force systems are individually designed force applications
that prevent and correct deformities. Correcting deformities
through structural alignment makes an improved walking
function possible. A more secure and efficient outcome for
those with physical limitations is realized.
The device is dynamic by design. As the
two struts flex when walking, it provides two important
elements: a dynamic response and a dynamic variable control
system for the knee. The dynamic response propels the limb
forward to return energy to the body and assists in ground
clearance. Control of the knee is achieved with a variable,
progressive resistance from the orthosis when walking. This
prevents the knee from buckling, but offers the possibility
of more efficient, secure walking.

There often is a device that can alleviate premature wearing of joints, ligaments, muscle, and bones, along with preventing ulcers, reducing or eliminating pain, and improving balance.
DBS orthotists work closely with a patient's physician, and can send an elaborate evaluation report with recommendations back to the physician.
