Walking Devices

Ottobock C-Brace microprocessor controlled knee joint system

Ottobock C-Brace microprocessor controlled knee joint system orthotronic mobility system; Suitable for users with paresis or paralysis of the knee joint musculature. This orthosis opens up new possibilities for freedom of movement.

Traditional, paralysis orthoses were limited to locking the knee joint only. With the newly developed C-Brace®, it now offers users a system that goes one step further, even groundbreaking.

Thanks to the integrated microprocessor, the user reacts intelligently to changing situations in real time. The hydraulic resistances in the standstill and swing phase are regulated accordingly. Thanks to this system, the user does not have to pay attention to every step he takes, but can get a fast or slow walk close to nature on uneven ground or slopes.

Ottobock E-MAG Active electronically controlled knee joint system

It is the newest e-mag active carbon long walking device design developed by Otto Bock.

It has been developed for users who have problems such as the inability of the knee extensor muscles due to paresis. In this problem, it is not possible to stabilize the knee joint without assistance.

In E - mag active orthosis system; An intelligent sensor system measures the leg position while walking and controls the orthosis joint accordingly. The electronic knee joint locks in the stance phase for safe support while walking and unlocks in the swing phase for a more natural gait.

LONG LEG WALKING DEVICES

Long walking devices are custom-made orthoses when the patient cannot control the knee and ankle joints effectively.

The most basic feature of long walking devices is that they keep the knee straight in extension. For most users, the ankle can be in a neutral position, while in some users the ankle is designed to allow dorsiflexion.

Ring-Lock Long Walk Device

The locking mechanism of the long walk device is locked with ring-like rings. To release the lock, the rings must be pulled upwards.

Swedish Locked Long Walk Device

The locking mechanism of the long walking device is stretched and locked by a mechanism located at the back of the leg. In order for the device to remain locked while in use, the mechanism must be stretched from the knee to the heel and remain fixed in the same position.
