Below is original post (only an hour ago!)

____________________________________________

I have seen this before, but never used it...can't think of the name! I
have a child that requires bilateral KAFO's. The therapist wants to control
scissoring...rather than go up to HKAFO, is there not a device that can be
attached medially between the two thighs to the thigh shell that allows
flex/ext at the hips, but will control ADDuction? What the heck is it
called? Where can I get more info?

Thanks for the many quick responses already!

 

Not the SWASH that I was thinking about...am looking to not have a pelvic
section.

 

It was the up and about or the walkabout. :
