Now With Boa Closure
Branier Orthopedic Custom Molded Shoes, Inserts & Braces, through a collaboration with Click Medical, is now offering the patented Boa® closure system with its custommolded shoe lines. With the capacity to easily generate tension across the vamp of a shoe, comparable to or in excess of that achieved with standard laces, Boa's mechanical reel system works to draw its steel cable through a series of easy glide nylon guides. By integrating a Click Medical kit containing Boa® components, Branier can manufacture custom-molded shoes capable of achieving an unprecedented fit for patients with limited manual dexterity.

Prefabricated KAFO Systems
Anatomical Concepts' prefabricated KAFO designs enable the use of the PENTAGON® or KMO™ knee orthosis in combination with our PRAFO® Orthosis and/or articulated single posterior upright AFO designs. These modular KAFO combinations provide effective and affordable single posterior jointed designs and superior sagittal plane support without the bulkiness of traditional double upright designs when managing your neurological rehabilitation or orthopedic patients.
The individual ankle-foot and knee sections can be disconnected quickly and without tools to be used separately, if necessary. The versatility and simplicity of our posterior upright knee orthoses have made basic knee joint management easier.

Dynamic Chopart Gait Stabilizer
This unique AFO has been designed for people with Chopart amputations who wish to remain active. A traditional, full-length AFO will often be stiff and feel unnatural to such a patient. Using a hinged ankle and flexible foot plate with a segmented dynamic filler allows flexion before providing a "stop" that protects the residuum and prevents shoe vamp collapse. The PTB design and the anterior shell redistribute ground reaction forces up the lower limb. For more information, visit our website or call the lab toll-free.

Allux 4-Bar MPK
In Pursuit of the World's Safest Knee.
Allux is the world's first polycentric microprocessor stance-and-swing-phase controlled knee. Nabtesco, a leader in microprocessor knee technology, has once again driven innovation forward with a new design. The unique concept boasts a dual safety system based on inherent polycentric stability factors and microprocessor control. The polycentric design's greater toe clearance means less risk of stumbling; however, in case of a stumble, the microprocessor immediately increases the hydraulic resistance to prevent the knee from sudden buckling.
The Allux knee heightens safety and security while providing exceptional functionality to the user.

ALPS New Guardian Suction Liner
The Guardian Suction Liner from ALPS features raised GripGel bands that grip the socket wall to form a secure interface between the socket and liner to prevent slippage or premature release. These low-modulus GripGel bands stretch against the socket wall, while the inner wall conforms easily to the residual limb to ensure there is no restriction of blood flow or stiffening to inhibit donning. No seams and a single-piece construction improve durability. Available in both transfemoral and transtibial models, the Guardian Suction Liner can be fully inverted for ease of donning.
