Overview
The FIT KIT is a testing equipment designed to facilitate the correct choice of a WalkOn AFO (ankle foot orthoses). The objective is to assess if a WalkOn Reaction Plus is appropriate for the patient. The purpose is not to evaluate the correct size.
The FIT KIT is suited for WalkOn Reaction Plus, article number 28U25. (WalkOn Reaction Plus is lightweight, low profile, and extremely tough. Like the other members of the WalkOn family, it's fabricated from a prepreg advanced carbon composite).
The FIT KIT includes four products:
- 1 left 28U25 adapted to size 39 (fits shoe size 39-42)
- 1 right 28U25 adapted to size 39 (fits shoe size 39-42)
- 1 left 28U25 adapted to size 42 (fits shoe size 42-45)
- 1 right 28U25 adapted to size 42 (fits shoe size 42-45)
(Size 39 fits patients which have up to shoe size 42 and size 42 fits patients which have up to shoe size 45).
How to use the FIT KIT:
- Choose a suitable product in terms of size and side for your patient.
- Place the AFO in the patient’s shoe, preferably under any removeable insole.
