Safety

• Before this device is used, it is essential
that the orthosis is individually adapted
to the patient by an experienced ortho-
pedic technician and that the patient is
trained in the orthosis' use according to
the doctor's instructions.
• Incorrect selection, adaptation, appli-
cation, and/or failure to monitor the
correct fit of this product may cause
health damage.
• Never wear the orthosis on broken skin.
• Check orthosis for damage (such as
loose connections, fasteners, belts,
etc.) each time it is put on.
• In case you suspect any performance
malfunctions (e.g. an apparent reduc-
tion or lack of effect), immediately call
on your doctor or orthopedic technician.
• The orthosis must be checked for pro-
per function, correct fit and potential
damage by a doctor or orthopedic tech-
nician at regular intervals. The timing
of these intervals has to be defined
individually for each patient.
• Should the product have been subject
to disproportionate stress, it must be
checked for potential damage by an
orthopedic technician before further use.
• Harmful pressure caused by the ortho-
sis may cause skin injuries or disrupt
blood flow and must be avoided.
• Due to the individual adaptation to the
patient the orthosis may not be reused
on other people.
