APUŽ PRAFOŽ Orthosis The adjustable posterior upright design provides the practitioner a more precise and simplified method of setting the ankle/foot complex in the sagittal plane.
The posterior approach requires controlling one upright joint, which lessens the chances of mechanical failure while also eliminating any pressure to the medial/lateral aspects of the malleoli that can be attributed with two joint systems. The APUŽ PRAFOŽ orthosis is also available for the inclusion in custom made thermoplastic AFO and KAFO systems.
