LoadShifter KAFO: Overview

Kevin Matthews demonstrates his new KAFO design. This orthosis, or knee brace design is indicated for patients who suffer from chronic, acute knee pain that limits their life. It will also work well for patients who had a post-operative infection after knee replacement surgery and had hardware removed. It effectively removes 100% of the load bearing force at the knee. If there is no load, there is no pain. It is also armor against the outside world. It was originally intended for physicians, and still is, but all can view. -Kevin Matthews, CO/LO
