I have a patient with a repaired torn quad who the doctor wants in a kafo with firm extension assist and near 0 flexion resistance so the quads do not have to fire and full flexion is easily attainable. He does not want a locked knee. Any suggestions as to available joints would be appreciated.

Thanks
