Khyber Medical University Students Gain Hands-On Expertise in Making Ankle Foot Orthosis

In an inspiring session at Khyber Medical University, the Prosthetics and Orthotics students of Batch 5, Semester 2, experienced learning beyond the classroom. What started as a regular training turned into a deeply practical and engaging experience.

Orthotist Prosthetist Mr. Atif guided the students through the step-by-step process of making an Ankle Foot Orthosis (AFO)—from selecting the right materials, marking, taking accurate measurements, to casting the AFO. Students observed closely, asked questions, and absorbed the nuances of practical orthotics work.

Sessions like these not only enhance technical skills but also build clinical confidence, preparing students for real-world patient care. This hands-on training reflects the commitment of Khyber Medical University to equip future prosthetists and orthotists with both knowledge and practical expertise.
