Does anyone have any experience with patients with DMD that have had success using UltraFlex AFOs to gain dorsiflexion range of motion, reducing equinovarus contractures? I am aware of the success in maintaining range of motion by early intervention, but not after the contractures have developed. I will post the responses. Link is from UltraFlex for maintaining the range of motion.
