This Thermoplastic
HAFO design is a custommade polypropylene hinged ankle foot orthosis
for support and stabilization of the talocalcaneal, mid-tarsal,
and subtalar joints. The HAFO, made with a Free Motion or Dorsi-
Assist ankle joint, manages abnormal motion or severe pronation
in the transverse and frontal planes. It also stabilizes the ankle
area medially, laterally, and reduces either forefoot abduction
or adduction.
