Join Dr. Steve Gard, editor-and-chief for the Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics, as he chats with Nicole Hoffman, DPT, about her study investigating whether carbon fiber two-pull solid ankle-foot orthoses (CTP-AFOs) would have similar outcomes as serial casting in the treatment of children with a diagnosis of idiopathic toe walking and ankle equinus contracture. The two discuss the motivation behind the research, the decision to use carbon fiber orthoses, primary findings and surprises, and clinical takeaways.
