The deceptively simple design of the Fusion Foot provides superb multiaxial movement and vertical shock during ambulation and delivers a high level of energy storage and return to patients. The
key to the Fusion Foot's performance is the integrated design that allows the composite shank, heel and foot plate to work together as a unit rather than independently. As a result, the Fusion Foot
delivers vertical shock absorption, smooth heel-to-toe transition, inversion/eversion, and strong energy return all in one mechanism.
The fusion incorporate a
pair of snubbers providing
a smooth heel-to-toe motion
with little effort required by
the wearer
The gap between the plates
deflects at an angular motion
relative to the foot plate creating vertical shock compression
Adjustable snubbers allow
the plates of the foot to flex,
bend and touch providing
medial/lateral stability on
uneven terrain

The key to the Fusion Foot's performance is the integrated design
that allows the composite shank, heel and foot plate to work
together as a unit rather than independently. As a result, the Fusion
Foot delivers vertical shock absorption, smooth heel-to-toe
transition, inversion/eversion, and strong energy return all in one
mechanism.

Clinicians have several opportunities to customise the Fusion Foot.
Two heel wedges to customise heel stiffness. Two sizes of snubbers,
small to increase and large to decrease inversion/eversion.

The shank of the Fusion Foot may be trimmed to suit patient's limb length and requires no drilling of holes.

GENERAL GUIDELINES
To Select Proper Composite Toe Spring Stiffness:
1. Calculate adjusted body weight. (Adjusted body weight = patient body weight + loads normally or routinely carried)
2. Using adjusted body weight and patient activity level, select the toe spring stiffness from the chart below.
