ARTICLE'S CHARACTERISTIC
Children orthesis, open type, made of perforated polyurethane foam, on both sides covered with fabric. It is equipped with 2 independent sets of fastening Velcro tapes. The product is equipped with single-axis side splints, made of high quality material reinforced with carbon fibre. The positioning of the splints and their specific flexibility allow for perfect fitting to the leg and therefore stabilization of the protected joint. The splints are equipped with a mechanism to adjust flexion and extention every 15 deg which makes the process of rehabilitation of the damaged joint much easier. There is also a possibility of fixing the mechanism in the 180 deg position, used in case of requirement to stabilize the limb in stretched position. The weight of the orthesis DOSK Z/1-R/U with carbon fibre is a few times less than traditional orthesis. This fact makes this orhesis especially attractive for children. |
