Smart Orthotic Treatment (SOT) Resting Hand Orthosis
Many complications can cause reduced mobility in the hand, which can result in contractures if left untreated. Starting hand therapy at an early stage, before spasticity is established, may help to maintain or increase mobility of the hand. Smooth and lightweight, the SOT Resting Orthosis has an aluminum core that allows adjustment to the desired resting position. A good biomechanical position may reduce the risk of flexor shortening in the wrist and fingers. The soft, elastic cover eliminates pressure points from bulky straps.

A Foot/Shank System Designed to Boost Performance
Imagine a foot/shank system that is simple, lightweight, lets you move naturally, and uses energy more efficiently. That's the idea behind Satylite, a new, single-axis ankle/elastic foot and dynamic shank combination whose kinesiomechanical structure can be expertly tailored for ADLs. Motion is controlled during the first half of the step by compression of rubber bumpers and advanced graphite composite deflection during the second half. Suggested codes are L-5975, L-5984, L-5985, and L-5988 or L-5987. Dycor…renewing lifestyles.

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.
