For children with flexed-knee (crouch) gait due to neuromuscular or orthopedic conditions, externally powered microprocessor-controlled knee–ankle–foot orthoses (MPKAFOs) have demonstrated biomechanical and kinematic improvements in controlled settings.
On this episode ofThe O&P Check-in: an SPS Podcast,we sit down with Vice President and General Manager of O&PInsight, Lesleigh Sisson, CFo, CFm, to chat about the rising trends in payer audits, the most common causes of avoidable revenue loss, and proactive compliance strategies that help O&P clinics ensure claims get and stay paid.
On this episode of SPS Unpacked, we’re exploring the PROTEOR Kinterra EVAQ8, a prosthetic foot designed to combine hydraulic ankle articulation with elevated vacuum suspension, delivering superior adaptability, comfort, and socket security for active users.
On this episode ofThe O&P Check-in: an SPS Podcast, we spoke with Bob Radocy, founder of Fillauer TRS, and Debra Latour, OTD, M. Ed., OTR/L, Doctoral Experiential Capstone Coordinator at Western New England University, about activity-specific prostheses and how they can support patients both physically and emotionally.
In prosthetic care, the foot is more than a component. It's a foundation for movement, confidence, and daily life. That’s the philosophy behind Ottobock’s Taleo family of prosthetic feet: a versatile lineup engineered not just for walking, but for living.
FASTER THAN YOUR BIOLOGICAL REFLEXES: The Proteor Quattro has three high‑precision sensors to trigger real‑time, adaptive adjustments that make each transition feel truly intuitive.
The Bionic Power Agilik™ smart orthosis is the first powered microprocessor-controlled knee-ankle-foot orthosis (MPKAFO) designed for adult and pediatric patients with neurological and musculoskeletal gait impairments affecting mobility and function. Backed by an IRB-approved clinical study, the Agilik boosts endurance and mobility with smart, real-time knee extension and flexion.
The Symphony Knee’s innovative 6-Bar polycentric structure provides an extremely high level of stability during the stance phase, combining with a unique hydraulic cylinder to create a super smooth swing phase. The built-in mechanical sensor allows the knee to control the stability of the knee joint automatically. Creating a smooth, comfortable, confident gait is what the Symphony Knee is all about.
