In this study, presented by Susan Ann Rethlefsen, PT, DPT, Children's Hospital Los Angeles, researchers compared two styles of ankle-foot orthoses - AFOs - dynamic (DAFO) and adjustable dynamic response (ADR), used for children with cerebral palsy who display crouch and/or equinus gait. Ten children were fit with both style AFOs in a randomized order for 4 weeks. During this time, the children wore a Stepwatch activity monitor.
