Turbomed XTERN is an AFO that can be used for people experiencing foot drop. This newly developed modular AFO with a sleek design can be used for a variety of daily activities. Compared to plastic orthoses, the XTERN is made from durable thermoplastic and can be attached to almost any shoe.
Unlike other plastic AFOs that sit inside a shoe, the XTERN attaches to the outside of your shoe, preventing skin breakdown and rubbing.
It can allow for walking, running, hiking and many other activities. The XTERN can be placed on many different types of shoes, allowing for it to be easily switched from one type of footwear to another.
There are different sizes of the Turbomed XTERN to ensure you get the right fit for your shoe size.
Due to the unique patented design of the Turbomed XTERN, there is a spring-like action that stores energy, allowing for your foot to clear more easily during walking. This can help to increase activity endurance, decrease fatigue, and reduce the risk of tripping and falling.
