- Knee hyperextension secondary to excessive plantarflexion
- Toe walking
- Transfers for non-ambulatory patients when used with a proximal strap
Not recommended for:
- Patients who benefit from having more sagittal plane flexibility
- Patients with knee flexion instability (when proximal strap is removed)
