PEDIATRIC UFO
The pediatric UFO™ from Orthomerica is a comfortable, prefabricated orthosis for stretching and maintaining dorsiflexion range of motion. This unique lower-limb orthosis positions the foot and ankle in optimal alignment for placing stretch on the soleus while the patient is sleeping. When used in conjunction with a knee immobilizer, this orthosis can also stretch the
two-joint gastrocnemius group.
