Orthotics-

FO,AFO, KAFO, HKAFO,THKAFO- LSO, LSFEL,TLSO,TLSFE,- CO, CTLSO, TLSO

QuestionAnswer
FO Metatarsal pad, Cushion heel, heel spurd pad.
FO- Longitudinal arch support: UCBL, Scaphoid pad, Thomas heel
FO- Rearfoot posting- alters the postion of subtalar joint(STJ)or rearfooot, from heelstrike to flat.
FO- Rearfoot posting- Varus post ( medial Wedge) limits or control eversion of calcaneous
FO- Rearfoot posting-( lateral wedge) limits calcaneus and subtalar joint that are excessively inverted.
Forefoot posting: supports the forefoot
Forefoot posting: Supports the forefoot, Medial wedge prescribed for forefoot varus, Lateral wedge prescribed for forefoot valgus
Forefoot posting is contraindicated for? Insensitive foot
Types pf Forefoot posting: Heel lifts( or heel plataform), rocker bar, rocker botton.
AFOs - Anterior stop:(Dorsiflex stop) can be used to control from knee hyperextension - Because AFO at 5 deg. of df It results in KNEE FLEXION
AFOs- Porterior stop: (plantar flex stop) Used to control for a unstable knee that buckles. AFO set at 5 deg, of plantar flex it results in KNEE EXTESION
Knee extension is provide by what kind of AFO? AFOs- Porterior stop: (plantar flex stop)
Knee flexion is provide by what kind od AFO? AFOs- Porterior stop: (plantar flex stop)
Molded AFO is contraindicated for what kind of population? Individuals with changing leg volume.
Caracteristics of molded AFO- Posterior leaf spring: Provides no medial lateral stability.
Caracteristics of molded AFO- MOdified AFO Provides more medial and lateral stability( control of calcaneal and forefoot inversion and eversion)
Caracteristics of molded AFO- Solid Ankle AFO control and prevents df, pf , inversion and eversion.
Caracteristics of molded AFO- Spiral AFO (spirals around the calf)- Provide limited control in all planes.
SPecialized AFO- Patelar-tendon-bearing Patelar tendon bearing (reduces weight bearing trough the foot)
SPecialized AFO- Tone reducing orthosis Afo tha applies constant pressure to spatic or hypertonic muscles ( plantar flexors and invertors)
Types of KAFO:(4) Craig - Scott, Oregon orthotic system, Fracture braces, FES
Craig - Scott ( KAFO): used appliance for indivisulas with paraplegia.
Oregon orthotic system( KAFO) components that allow for triplanar control in 3 planes of motion( sagital, frontal and transverse)
FES( KAFO) orthotic used and functional ambulation is acilited by the addition of electrical stimulation to specific muscles.
HKAFO Controls for abduction, adduction and rotation of hip joint.
THKAFOS contains a trunk band added to a HKAFO
SPecialized lower limbs devices: Denis Browne Splint- used for correction of club foot, Frejika pillow- keeps hip abducted, used for hip dysplasia. Toronto hip abduction orthosis- abducts the hip- used in tto of Legg- Calve- Perthes disease.
Denis Browne Splint- Denis Browne Splint- used for correction of club foot or pes equinovarus
Frejika pillow keeps hip abducted, used for hip dysplasia
Toronto hip abduction orthosis- abducts the hip; used in treatment of Legg Calve Perthes Disease
LSO control or limit lombosacral motions.
LSFEL Lumbosacral Flexion, Extension, Lateral control Orthoses
TLSO limit or control thoracic and lumbosacral motions
Jewett( TLSO) limits flexion, but encourages hyperextension( lordosis); used for compression fractures of the spine.
CO (4) Cervical Orthosis: soft collar, four poster orthosis, Halo Orthosis, Minerva Orthosis.
UL Ortheses Dorsal wrist splint, Airplane splint.
What are the principal ORTHOTIC Assesments on Check out procedures? - STATIC ASSESMENTS- 1- check aligment of lower limb orthosis,2-In midstance foot should be flat on the floor, Othortic hip joint- .8 cm ant and sup to greater trochanter.Medial knee joint- About 2 cm above joint space and adductor tubercle. Ankle joint- at tip of malleolus.
What are the principal ORTHOTIC Assesments on Check out procedures? - Dinamic ASSESMENTS- Fit and function during ADL's, function mobility skills, fit and function during gait.
