Trulife Matrix SuperMax is the top-tier AFO in the Matrix line. It has a special footplate design that enhances energy return when pushing off. The shank angle is increased to 82° to help with knee extension during walking. It's suitable for people with conditions like drop foot, nerve issues, or muscle weakness, whether on one or both legs.
Energy-Storing Composite Footplate: The AFOs are equipped with an energy-storing composite footplate. This feature allows for efficient energy transfer during gait, enhancing the wearer's ability to walk with greater ease and reduced fatigue.
Open Calcaneal Design: The open calcaneal design promotes airflow and reduces pressure on the heel, enhancing comfort and preventing skin irritation or ulcers in sensitive areas.
Lateral Strut: The inclusion of a lateral strut provides additional support and stability to the ankle joint, aiding in proper alignment and preventing excessive lateral movement.
