Ypsilon® Flow ½
Ypsilon® Flow ½ is the AFO of choice for active patients who require less stability and more flexibility. Ypsilon® Flow ½ has a lower heel height (approx. 7 mm) which accommodates gentler contours of shoe insoles and offers more clearance for the forefoot in the shoe toe box. Designed to allow optimum range of motion and dynamic toe-off assist, providing the opportunity for functional or potentially functional muscles, tendons, and ligaments to strengthen and prevent or reduce atrophy. The footplate is engineered to allow the orthosis to adapt to and move with the lower leg with less resistance to ground reaction forces, while the proximal ends of the “Y” provide fixation points, eliminating pressure on the tibia crest. Smooth and thin, the interface pad and strap fit close to the leg, ensuring the brace glides smoothly and is barely noticeable under jeans or trousers. Ypsilon® Flow ½ has a heel height that is 7 mm in all sizes.
Recommended Range Of Application
Ypsilon® Flow is designed to manage footdrop in conditions such as Stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, Post Polio Syndrome, Muscular Dystrophy, Spinal Cord Injuries, Traumatic Brain Injuries, Guillian-Barre Syndrome, Charcot-Marie-Tooth, Myelomeningocele, Neuropathy or Cerebral Palsy.
Contraindications
Ypsilon® Flow should not be used when patients present with foot and/or leg ulcers, moderate to severe edema, moderate to severe foot deformities, severe proximal defcits (e.g. quadriceps spasticity, genu valgum or varum, genu recurvatum), severe spasticity.
