WalkOn Lateral AFO

The WalkOn Lateral is lightweight, low profile, and extremely tough. Like other members of the WalkOn Family, the Lateral is fabricated from a prepreg advanced carbon composite. It is especially designed for active patients with weak dorsiflexion or paralysis.

Features and Benefits:

• Passive, flexible limitation of plantar flexion ensures dynamic foot positioning
• Carbon fiber construction creates a stable, lightweight orthosis and provides high energy return
• Limits plantar flexion and supination when worn with a stable shoe
• Lightweight design and slim anatomical shape increase compliance and allows for a dynamic gait at higher speeds
• Lateral strut avoids conflicts with contra-lateral side and to better suit ankle supination or flat foot

Indications:

Drop foot with no more than mild spasticity, e.g. after stroke, traumatic brain injury, in multiple sclerosis, neural muscle atrophy, peroneal palsy etc.
