ABSTRACT:
An orthotic device is developed and customized to control the (un)desired movements of the patient's defective lower limb. The device incorporates a footplate made of a rubber like elastomeric material, a proximal segment that encompasses the foot at the metatarsal phalengeal joints and the dorsal aspect of the foot, and a second proximal segment that encompasses the shin portion of the leg. Motion of the patient's talocrual is allowed and controlled by laminating mechanical joints to the medial and lateral aspects of the brace and providing cutouts in the lamination just anterior and posterior to the ankle joint axis of motion.
