Abstract
The present research deal with the physical examination and analysis of an instrument that is ankle foot orthotic device. The physics of this device consist of calf piece; calf strap; a muscle stimulator; stimulator suspension including a press button with nylon strap; two adhesive electrodes; electrical wires; hinge joint; JBR outsole; foot piece; ankle strap; forefoot strap; rings; adjustable strap; press button; cold and hot pack pouch; a means to provide upward projection; & shank. The customized AFO device is characteristic in the sense that the adhesive strap being mounted on the rings so as to keep the plantar section of the foot piece in straight position and wherein the adhesive strap being made up by a combination of polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene and polyethylene wherein polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene and polyethylene is 1:1:2 by weight; wherein the cold and hot pack pouch being made up of 40.5 wt% water; 40.5 wt% ammonium nitrate, 4 wt% hydropropylmethyl cellulose and 15 wt% propylene glycol; and wherein the said electrode being made up of a hydrogel comprises of acrylic acid and N-vinylpyrrolidone. The overall result feedback is a feeling of increased muscle control, flexibility, and range of motion on using the device.
