endolite Javelin JAV22L1 Instructions D'utilisation page 2

1 Description and Purpose
Application:
These instructions are for use by the Practitioner.
The Javelin is to be used exclusively as part of a lower limb prosthesis.
A lightweight, high energy return foot, ideal for medium impact use. The flexible extended pylon
reduces shock load transmission making it suitable for work and leisure activities. Independent
heel and toe springs provide some axial deflection. The split toe provides good ground
compliance.
This device is recommended for users that have the potential to achieve Activity Level 3.
Of course there are exceptions and in our recommendation we want to allow for unique,
individual circumstances and any such decision should be made with sound and thorough
justification.
Appropriate footwear must be worn to avoid
the risk of slipping in wet environments
Contra-indications:
This device may not be suitable for Activity Level 1 individuals or for competitive sports
events, as these types of users will be better served by a specially designed prosthesis
optimized for their needs.
Intended for single user.
Ensure that the user has understood all instructions for use, drawing particular attention to the
section regarding Maintenance.
