A jointed AFO is a type of Ankle-Foot Orthoses that is characterised by one or more joint mechanisms. It may be known as an articulated AFO.
The mechanisms are placed over the medial and lateral malleoli, which are the ‘bony parts’ of the true ankle joint. In contrast, a standard AFO is of solid construction with no moving pieces.
A jointed AFO can be manufactured out of various materials, usually plastic or carbon fibre.
