Course Description:
We have come a long way from locked knee KAFOs and stiff AFOs. The awareness and utilization of this technology will maximize patient outcomes. This seminar will cover orthotic bracing including AFOs, KAFOs, SCOs, and SSCOs. In addition, we will also discuss the C-Brace, the first microprocessor KAFO designed to provide a new level of safety and a more natural gait than ever before. The course will provide understanding of the requirements for activation for all Stance Control and Swing and Stance Control orthoses as well as how to optimize patient strengths to achieve these requirements. The participants will gain understanding of what happens during gait cycle in relation to the orthoses, and how patients can activate the system they are wearing. The course will provide therapy suggestions for providing increased safety, stability, and activation of the systems according to patient needs and system requirements.
