Greetings,

I am fitting an inpatient at a local hospital where the therapists are unfamiliar with the fitting and training for KAFO's with stance phase control locks. Does anyone have information which would be helpful for them in teaching this elderly patient to use his new brace. The manual from the manufacturer is more from the Orthotist's the point of view and lacking in teaching tips.
