SureStep

h.e.k.o.

 


Additional information:


Finally, you may never have to put an AFO on a child for knee hyperextension again! 


The new SureStep h.e.k.o. is the next revolution from SureStep. The SureStep h.e.k.o. is a fully functional hyperextension orthosis for smaller pediatric patients. h.e.k.o. approaches hyperextension of the knee by limiting knee movement without limiting normal function. Controlling genu recurvatum has traditionally been addressed at the ankle; limiting plantarflexion. This in turn limits the development of normal gait and reduces the child’s ability to function naturally and keep up with his peers. 

(Custom Fabricated from measurements)
