Arizona AFO, an OHI company, in late May introduced the Arizona Mezzo ankle foot orthosis (AFO). Developed by the Milwaukee, WI-based Wilson Janisse Group, the Arizona Mezzo was designed to fill the middle ground between the limited function of a UCBL (University of California Biomechanics Lab) orthosis and the control of an Arizona Brace, the namesake of the Mesa, AZ-based company.
Dennis Janisse, CPed, a principal in Wilson Janisse Group and director of pedorthics for OHI, led development of the product.
