Thermoplastic and Metal HKAFO Braces Front View

Sizes are as close as possible, as they are set now:

Overall length (height) 39 inches ( can be lengthened 3 inches or shortened one inch by moving hip joint adjustment screws)

Bottom of footplate to knee joint 19 inches

Bottom of footplate to top of leg brace inseam 26.5 inches, outseam 27.5 inches

Average thigh circumference 21 inches (has at least 3 inches adjustment in or out)

Width at waist 12 inches, circumference average is around 32 inches (will adjust in or out at least 5 inches)

Calf circumference approximately 15 inches (also adjustable)

Velcro closed toe straps, ankle straps, below knee straps, thigh straps and waist strap with wider pads attached

 

RATCHET type knee and hip joints allow the wearer to extend slowly and lock at intervals when standing, the ratchets will NOT allow the joints to open back up until the lever is released, this is helpful when leg muscles are not strong and makes it easier to stand

 

This is a VERY VERY secure brace because of all the contact afforded by the molded thermoplastic, ankles are immobilized at 90 degrees.

 

These braces MUST be worn with an appropriate shoe of orthopedic sandal or boot, the thermoplastic is VERY slippery on carpet.
