Orlando® HKAFO

Orlando HKAFOs are modular, lightweight, and can be ordered and stocked as components, making them immediately available or custom assembled to patient measurements. Orthotists choose from a wide selection of pelvic, hip joints, femoral, tibial, knee joints and shoe inserts to meet patient needs.

Anatomically designed pelvic components offer a variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate even the most difficult to fit patient. Unique, patented hip joints control flexion/extension and abduction/adduction. These joints conrol range of motion of the affected limb and provide adjustability throughout the rehabilitation process. Thigh and tibial components promote further stability through circumferential compression of soft tissue. Standard or special order knee joints control sagittal and coronal plane motions. The shoe insert provides the final link in the mechanical chain of support by allowing limited or full range of ankle motion as indicated.
