KAFO drop lock options

Kelly Weston

Hello Listserve, Does anyone have experience with NON-Becker drop locks? I have seen a steady decline in the machining quality of Becker components over the last few years and I want to know if any other manufacturers have a more reliably built catalogue of joints. The drop lock options I found were Proteor, Trulife, Fillauer and maybe Ottobock. The Becker joints and rings frequently come with too much play when they are locked. My post-polio patients interpret this as the joints are not stable. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
