Contribution of an Off-the-shelf Carbon Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) in the Management of Walking Functional Impairment

Официальное название

Single Case Experimental Design (SCED) Comparing an Off-the-shelf Carbon Ankle Foot Orthosis (SPRYSTEP) Versus an off-the Shelf Standard Plastic Ankle Foot Orthosis in the Treatment of Walking Functional Impairment

Обзор

The objective of this study is to assess the superiority in achieving personal goals (set by the patient and the medical team) according to the GAS scale (Goal Attainment Scaling) while wearing the carbon medical device Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) compared to a standard plastic ankle foot orthosis.

Подробное описание

Foot drop is a symptom observed in various pathologies including neuro-muscular pathologies of peripheral or central origin. It is a walking disability, causing a deterioration in the patients autonomy and quality of life.

The current medical strategy focuses on various off-the-shelf or custom made devices, depending on the walking functional impairment and the characteristics of foot deformities.

The objective of this study is to assess the superiority in achieving personal goals (set by the patient and the medical team) according to the GAS scale (Goal Attainment Scaling) while wearing the carbon medical device ankle foot orthosis compared to a standard plastic ankle foot orthosis.
