KiddieFLOW™ by Allard USA
Allard USA has extended its pediatric AFO line with KiddieFLOW™ in response to clinician requests for an orthosis with more foot plate flexibility. KiddieFLOW™ allows for better control of foot positioning in late swing, which aids in stability during stance. FLOW models offer increased range of motion in the sagittal plane and a smoother transition (flow) throughout the gait cycle.

Extreme Liner by ALPS
ALPS South’s most popular liner, the Extreme Liner, is designed explicitly for transfemoral and active transtibial amputees. With 80% less vertical stretch than other gel liners by ALPS, amputees will benefit from the reduced movement of redundant tissue and experience increased control and stability. Plus, users have a choice between Grip Gel or the stiffer high-density (HD) gel, depending on needs and activity level. Top features and benefits include: • Brown fabric offers limited vertical stretch to reduce movement of redundant tissue and provides greater control of the prosthesis • Slightly tacky feel reduces bunching in the popliteal region • High circumferential stretch to assist with form fitting • Wider distal end proportionate to the size of the liner for ease of donning • Available in 3-mm and 6-mm uniform.
