ABSTRACT:
An orthopedic brace for foot drop and similar conditions utilizes an anterior dorsal ankle foot orthoses having an anterior support adapted to be placed against the shin of the leg and strapped to the leg at a point below the knee. The lower end of the orthoses terminates in a yoke at the dorsal portion of the foot, the yoke having lateral side members adapted to be placed on either side of the foot for supporting a foot pad. The foot pad supports the foot from the heel to the ball. The ankle/foot orthoses may be placed in standard footwear, reducing the visibility of the brace to the observer.
