Hi there.
i have a PPP patient with almost 3.5 cm
shortening. He has been using KAFO with the drop lock
knee joint for the past 15 years. and therefore in
habit of unlocking the knee joint manually.
Now as the patient needs a new orthosis, i want to
give him a knee joint which he can unlock manually
(without cable). The patient himself don't like to
have swiss lock knee joint or the joint which has pull
release cable in it. All that he needs is a joint
which he can unlock manually but at the same time due
spring action the joint gets locked on extension or u
can say on standing.
Can anybody share his experience regarding such a
case?
Best regards.
