Summary
FU Beloit Lyon IA 18:30 2 to 3 mi (3.2 to 4.8 km) >0 yd (0 m)
Several trees were uprooted, and small buildings and windmills were damaged.[2]
F4 SE of Stoneburg to NE of Bowie Clay, Montague, Denton TX 19:00 30 mi (48 km) 400 yd (370 m)
3 deaths – In Stoneburg, a church was obliterated, with debris splintered and scattered for a mile. That said, a linen scarf was untouched that laid on the pulpit. Elsewhere along the tornado's track, an elderly man was killed and his wife injured after their house was destroyed. A "prominent elderly couple" were killed after their homes and every barn on their new ranch was leveled. The U.S. Weather Bureau considered this tornado and the following tornado the same, while Grazulis split the tornadoes up. In total, three people were killed, 15 others were injured, and the tornado caused $112,000 (1946 USD) in damage.[2][3]
F4 Around Sanger Denton TX 20:00 8 mi (13 km) 200 yd (180 m)
1 death – A home on the north side of Sanger was leveled and three others were leveled east of the town. East of Sanger, a nine-year-old girl was killed by flying debris while she ran for the storm cellar. The U.S. Weather Bureau considered this tornado and the following tornado the same, while Grazulis split the tornadoes up. In total, one person was killed and five others were injured.[2][3]

AFO table
 
AFO known as:
SAFO
Designation of the orthosis according to one function: S for solid

plus the body parts included in the orthosis fitting: ankle and foot, English abbreviation: AFO for ankle-foot orthoses

"SAFO"

Designation given by the Red Cross in 2006:

Rigid AFO[1]

  • Provides functional elements against a drop foot and for stabilization when standing
  • Blocks both plantar flexion and dorsiflexion, with all negative consequences
  • Alignment not adjustable
  • Stiffness in Plantarflexion not adjustable
  • Stiffness in Dorsiflexion not adjustable
 
AFO known as:
DAFO
Designation of the orthosis according to one function: D for dynamic

plus the body parts included in the orthosis fitting: ankle and foot, English abbreviation: AFO for ankle-foot orthoses

"DAFO"

Designation given by the Red Cross in 2006:

Flexible AFO[1]

  • Provides a functional element against a drop foot.
  • Does not provide safety when standing and walking if the plantar flexors are weak
  • Alignment not adjustable
  • Resistance in Plantarflexion not adjustable
  • Resistance in Dorsiflexion not adjustable
 
AFO known as:
Hinged AFO
Designation of the orthosis according to one function: Hinged

plus the body parts included in the orthosis fitting: ankle and foot, English abbreviation: AFO for ankle-foot orthoses

"Hinged-AFO"

"Hinged" simply means a flexible connection between the two parts of the orthosis. The joint itself does not offer any further functional elements.

Designation given by the Red Cross in 2006:[1]

AFO with Tamarack Flexure Joint

  • Provides a functional element against a drop foot.
  • Does not provide safety when standing and walking if the plantar flexors are weak.
  • Blocks plantar flexion with all negative consequences
  • Alignment not adjustable
  • Stiffness in Plantarflexion not adjustable
  • Resistance in Dorsiflexion not adjustable
 
AFO known as:
Posterior Leaf Spring
Designation of the orthosis according to one function:

"Posterior Leaf Spring"

Spring made from flexible material behind (posterior) the ankle

A DAFO often also known as "Posterior Leaf Spring"

Not mentioned by the Red Cross in 2006
  • Provides functional elements against a drop foot.
  • Stabilization when standing and walking for weak plantar flexors with energy return
  • Provides dynamics in the ankle but prevents the physiological plantar flexion caused by the heel lever, as the movement of the orthosis takes place behind the ankle joint
  • Alignment not adjustable
  • Stiffness in Plantarflexion not adjustable
  • Stiffness in Dorsiflexion not adjustable
 
AFO known as:
FRAFO
Designation of the orthosis according to one function:

FR for Floor reaction

plus the body parts included in the orthosis fitting: ankle and foot, English abbreviation: AFO for ankle-foot orthoses

"FRAFO"

Designation is misleading as other orthoses also have this function

Not mentioned by the Red Cross in 2006
  • Provides functional elements against a drop foot.
  • Stabilization when standing and walking for weak plantar flexors.
  • Blocks both plantar flexion and dorsiflexion, with all negative consequences
  • Alignment not adjustable
  • Resistance in Plantarflexion not adjustable
  • Resistance in Dorsiflexion not adjustable
 
AFO with stiff carbon fiber frame and dynamic ankle joint for adjustable stiffness through separately adjustable spring resistance in plantar- and dorsiflexion
Designation of the orthosis according to the body parts included in the orthosis fitting: ankle and foot, English abbreviation: AFO for ankle-foot orthoses.

Plus further descriptions, such as:
- ventral shell with torsionally rigid reinforcement to focus the dynamics on the ankle joint
- dynamic ankle joint with precompressed spring elements to control plantarflexion and dorsiflexion

Not mentioned by the Red Cross in 2006


Depending on which functional elements are integrated in the ankle joint used, such an orthosis can enable the following functions:[2][3][4][5][6]
  • provides dynamics in the ankle
  • Adjustable alignment
  • Adjustable resistance for shock absorption during loading response
  • Adjustable resistance to prevent drop foot
  • Adjustable resistance for stabilization when standing and walking for weak plantar flexors with energy return
