Can a functional orthotic environment<br />
change the deformity evolution?<br />
• <strong>KiddieGAIT</strong> is a ground reaction AFO made in<br />
composits to enable its dynamic features. It not<br />
olny helps the child through swing face, it also<br />
controlls the mobility of the foot in several planes<br />
during stance.<br />
• <strong>KiddieGAIT</strong> should be used as a frame to create<br />
an individudally developed orthosis to enhance<br />
gait for children from the age of 9 month.<br />
• <strong>KiddieGAIT</strong> is an AFO with an open heel and an<br />
anterior plate with energy reflecting features. It is<br />
the foundation to allow and control ankle motion<br />
and create a more functional environment.<br />
<strong>KiddieGAIT</strong><br />
Small, Medium och Large<br />
For the three larger sizes<br />
(Small, Medium and Large)<br />
SoftSHELL is combined<br />
into one cover with the<br />
SoftKIT integrated. The<br />
two straps have a plastic<br />
loop.<br />
SoftSHELL in these sizes<br />
are available in Red or<br />
Pink.<br />

SoftSHELL for the smaller sizes (Baby) have a slightly different construction<br />
that needs to be combined with a SoftKIT. The closure is integrated<br />
into the SoftSHELL.<br />
Baby sizes are available in Blue and Pink.<br />
To manufacture an AFO for children with change in<br />
tone, contractures and weakness in the muscles is a<br />
major challange.<br />
A lot of different things is going on ”from the top<br />
and down” (the brain controlling gait) and at the<br />
same time ”from the ground and up” (ground, foot,<br />
lower leg and orthosis). Everything effecting each<br />
other, which makes the need for a functional dymanic<br />
chain of movement so important.<br />
Our aim is to create a dynamic and functional<br />
chainreaction with a controlled movement instead<br />
of immobilization and inhibition for structures that<br />
is already weak and with low functionallity when it<br />
is possible.<br />
<strong>KiddieGAIT</strong> is now available in three smaller<br />
”baby” sizes as a complement to the ToeOFF ®<br />

The patterns for <strong>KiddieGAIT</strong> SoftSHELL might be changed without<br />
notice depending on material availability.
