We are pleased to introduce the Kintrol Foot/Ankle by Freedom Innovations to our lower limb prosthetic portfolio, as an optimal solution for low K2 ambulators. Constructed using aerospace-grade fibreglass, the durability and flexibility of this prosthesis provides a natural gait aided by innovative hydraulic technology.
The Kintrol is suitable for a wide range of user requirements, with an independently adjustable dorsiflexion and plantarflexion which clinicians can access without having to remove the foot shell. For transtibial patients, the ankle’s hydraulic flexion reduces tibial pressure inside the socket so that it remains secure and comfortable throughout the day. Whilst the full-length toe lever provides increased knee stability ideal for transfemoral patients.
The key feature of this foot/ankle system is the integrated hydraulic ankle technology designed to prevent tripping; using an active dorsi-assist spring to aid toe clearance during the swing phase and progressive ankle stop for increased ground contact and balance. These features, combined with the 2° dorsi and 10° plantar range of motion, enable users to move around securely with increased ankle movement.
