2.2 All Instructions for a Safe Handling of the System Ankle Joint

Potential Traffic Accident Due to Limited Driving Ability
Advise the patient to gather information about all safety and security issues before driving a motor vehicle
with orthosis. The patient should be able to drive a motor vehicle safely.
Risk of Falling Due to Improper Handling
Inform the patient about the correct use of the system joint and potential dangers especially with regards
to:
- moisture and water as well as
- excessive mechanical stress (e.g. due to sports, increased activity or weight gain).
Risk of Falling Due to Improper Processing
Process the system joint according to the information in these instructions for use. Deviating processing
and modifications of the system joint require the written consent of the manufacturer.
Risk of Falling Due to Loosely Attached Cover Plate
Mount the cover plate to the system joint according to the assembly instructions in these instructions for
use. Secure the screws with the specified torque and the corresponding adhesive and make sure that no
sliding washers are damaged in the process.
Risk of Falling Due to Incorrectly Selected System Components
Use the Orthosis Configurator to select the system joint and individual system components in order to
avoid joint dysfunction.
Risk of Falling Due to Permanent Higher Load
If patient data has changed (e.g. due to weight gain, growth or increased activity), recalculate the expected
load on the system joint, plan the treatment again and, if necessary, produce a new orthosis. For this
purpose, use the Orthosis Configurator or contact Technical Support.
Risk of Falling Due to Improper Shoe/Wrong Shoe Pitch
Advise the patient to wear a shoe to which the orthosis is adjusted in order to avoid joint dysfunction.
