YPSILON®
YPSILON®
by Allard
This design provides opportunity for functional or potentially functional muscles, tendons, and ligaments to function and strengthen. Individuals with limited energy or physiological endurance may require less energy to overcome ground reaction forces and obtain a smoother gait.Three point fixation/force principle. Dorsi-flexion control while allowing natural ankle movements.
Features:
Designed to provide dynamic toe-off assist, while allowing natural ankle movements, for the stable ankle.
Long strut (leverage arm). Allows orthosis to adapt to and move with the lower leg. Less resistance to ground reaction forces.
Strut extends lateral to instep.
Greater instep clearance. Allows more medial, lateral and rotational ankle movement.
Proximal ends of the ”Y” provide the tibia fixation.
Tibia crest clearance
Indications:
Foot drop resulting from neurologic disorder, such as, stroke, multiple sclerosis, post polio or post spinal cord injury.
Footdrop due to neuromuscular deficit, often associated with cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, myelomenigocele, and post surgery complications.
Mild ankle instability due to neuromuscular deficit or traumatic conditions.
