Summary

This study is designed to support evidence-based practice and optimal care by evaluating how different configurations of two types of carbon fiber custom dynamic orthoses (CDOs) influences outcomes following traumatic lower extremity injury.

Conditions

  • Foot Injury

Interventions

DEVICE

Modular Carbon Fiber Custom Dynamic Orthosis (CDO)

The CDO will use a modular design that includes a full length foot plate, a posterior carbon fiber strut, and a proximal cuff that wraps around the leg just below the knee.

DEVICE

Mono Carbon Fiber Custom Dynamic Orthosis (CDO)

The CDO will use a mono design that includes a full length foot plate, a posterior carbon fiber strut, and a proximal cuff that wraps around the leg just below the knee.
