Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 10/05/09
Rogozinski BM et al. – The floor–reaction ankle–foot orthosis is effective in restricting sagittal plane ankle motion during the stance phase of gait in patients with cerebral palsy. As a result, improvements in knee extension and the sagittal plane knee extensor moment in stance phase are achieved. The best outcomes with this orthosis, as determined by peak knee extension in midstance, were seen in the subjects with knee and hip flexion contracture of<10°. Knee and hip flexion contractures of>15° were found to limit the efficacy of the orthosis in controlling knee extension in midstance.
