Extended Defort AFO
The Extended Defort AFO uses the same design as the standard model for the distal part of the orthosis. However, it features a polymeric extension that extends proximally up the calf. This model provides additional leverage length and control for those with maximum stabilization and control needs.
This design, which is effective in reducing pressure points that cause disruption to skin integrity, enhances patient comfort.
