ToeOFF® Flow 2 ½

ToeOFF® Flow2½ is an ankle-foot orthosis (AFO) designed for foot drop and mild to moderate ankle instability. The orthosis is developed to promote a functional and natural gait pattern with good control of movement.

ToeOFF® Flow2½ has a low heel height of approximately 7 mm in all sizes, making it easy to accommodate in a variety of shoes. The smooth footplate, with a lower curvature at the forefoot, provides good walking comfort, a smooth rollover and more room in the shoe toe box. The AFO allows a greater range of motion in the A-P plane and contributes to a smooth and natural transition throughout the gait cycle.

The Flow series is designed to provide increased flexibility and a smoother gait, making ToeOFF® Flow2½ a functional choice for people with foot drop who need support without compromising mobility.

ToeOFF® Flow2½ is supplied with pre-applied MikroFix components for easy attachment of padding and a complete strap set, available with or without a D-ring. The straps are made from a durable material and can be fitted to close either medially or laterally on the orthosis.

Recommended Range Of Application

For individuals with foot drop due to conditions such as stroke, multiple sclerosis, post-polio syndrome, muscular dystrophy, spinal cord injuries, traumatic brain injuries, Guillain-Barré syndrome, Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, myelomeningocele, neuropathy and cerebral palsy.

Contraindications

Foot and/or leg ulcers, moderate to severe edema, moderate to severe foot deformities, and severe proximal deficits (e.g. severe quadriceps spasticity, genu recurvatum, genu valgum or genu varum).

Preliminary research suggests the use of a kinetic return ankle foot orthosis is associated with small but significant shortterm increases in calf circumference, which in turn suggests this type of device might reduce or protect against the risk of disuse muscle atrophy.
