Polycentric Knee Joint for Prefabricated Carbon Fiber KAFO

Polycentric Knee Joint for Prefabricated Carbon Fiber KAFO is intended for use as part of the complete Prefabricated KAFO (thigh component and AFO component sold separately). The free-motion polycentric knee joint allows for natural knee motion during flexion and extension without locking the knee into place. It is ideal for individuals who have partial control over their knee and need support but still want a dynamic range of motion for improved walking efficiency. When combined with the other components, the KAFO is stronger and lighter than traditional plastic models, with 90% less skin contact at the ankle-foot area. Open heel design eliminates potential sores and pressure points. Dynamic posterior lateral carbon fiber AFO provides dorsi-assist and helps propel the patient through their gait cycle. Must order a Thigh Component, AFO Component, and a Knee Joint to receive a complete KAFO.
