What are examples of KAFO?

Knee Ankle Foot Orthosis (KAFO) Hybrid KAFO. Graphite KAFO. Single Ankle Joint KAFO. Specialty KAFO.

What is the difference between KAFO and AFO?

Clinical indications for a KAFO include instability of the knee and ankle, quadriceps weakness or absence, hyperextension of the knee, varus or valgus deformity correction in children, and paralysis of one or both legs. One of the biomechanical problems with KAFOs is the effect it has on the normal gait pattern.

When to use kafo?

Until recently the only KAFO that was available was fixed with a locking knee joint. While they provide the needed stability to the knee, it can lead to muscle atrophy (muscle wastage through inactivity). Other disadvantages include unnecessary energy expenditure and a non-cosmetic walk.

What is the full form of KAFO brace?

Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthosis (KAFO) You may have been provided with a knee-ankle-foot orthosis, or KAFO, which has been designed to meet your individual needs. KAFOs are provided to compensate for muscle weakness, paralysis or skeletal problems which cause lower limb instability.

How long do you wear kafo?

Start slowly, only wearing your KAFO for a maximum of one hour on the first day. Increase the wearing time each day, by an extra 30 minutes to one hour until you are comfortable wearing your KAFO all day or as much as it is required.
