FAQs

What should I know about the laminated KAFO construction?

The page describes laminated construction. Ask how the proposed shell, joints and reinforcement will meet the clinical specification rather than selecting solely by material.

Who decides whether the knee joint should lock or move?

The prescribing team determines the joint arrangement and safe-use instructions. Ask for a demonstration of the specified mechanism and do not change its settings without advice.

What details are useful for a laminated KAFO request?

Provide the prescribed support requirements, joint choices, intended footwear and available limb-shape information. Confirm the fitting and review arrangements, as the shell material alone does not define the finished device.
