Prosthetics & Orthotics Types: Find Your Ideal Solution

Prosthetics and orthotics encompass diverse types, each designed to address specific impairments, body parts, or user needs. Prosthetic types include limb-specific options: lower-limb (prosthetic feet, ankles, knees, hips) for amputations and upper-limb (hands, fingers) for upper-body loss, with sub-types like bionic (AI-controlled knees) or mechanical (spring-loaded feet). Orthotic types focus on support needs: locks (spring/ring/rear lock, in 20/17/13 widths for adults/children), hinges (for paraplegia/poliomyelitis supports), and braces (spinal, ankle, knee). Types also categorize by user group: adult (heavy-duty prosthetics for work) vs. pediatric (growth-adjustable orthotics) or by activity (sports prosthetics for athletes). For example, a transfemoral amputee might use a bionic knee prosthetic, while a child with a limb difference could use a 13-width orthotic lock.
