The article gives definitions to the concepts of "rehabilitation", "habilitation", "individual rehabilitation program", "technical means of rehabilitation". The statistical data on primary disability of children with cerebral palsy in the city of Khabarovsk for the period 2016–2020 are presented. The characteristics of a wheelchair with additional fixation for patients with cerebral palsy are given. The requirements for the provision of disabled people with technical means of rehabilitation (wheelchairs) are noted, the principles of selection and the tasks that must be solved when using them are indicated. The method of correct determination of the parameters of the wheelchair is presented to help doctors of medical organizations in the preparation of referral documents for medical and social examination

Foot Orthosis

This paper reports on a series of case studies where improvements were sought in muscle tone and gait in children with cerebral palsy. A Midfoot Control Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO) was developed to control foot position in a cohort of patients with cerebral palsy (CP). The concept of controlling midfoot and hindfoot with an encapsulated internal Supra-Malleolar AFO that fitted into an external AFO was shown to be effective in ambulant children with CP. Some initial problems of compliance were noted and postulated to be due to difficulties associated with previous orthotic devices. Evidence from the case studies suggest that the developed Supra-Malleolar AFO orthoses enables children with CP to maintain mobility without skin tissue damage, delays the need for surgery and at the same time maintains the length of the Triceps Surae (Gastrocnemius and Soleus) complex. Plans for further research are discussed which will contribute to the evidence base for this particular orthotic device.
