General safety instructions
Risk of injury as a result of incorrect use; the professional should verify correct functioning of the
joints prior to delivery of the orthosis to the user. The patient and his/her care giver(s) should also
be instructed on donning and doffing of the orthosis and have the joint functionality explained to
them. It should also be made clear to them that the spring tension setting should never be changed
by anybody else than the professional or therapist, unless the treating physician decides otherwise.
The joints should not come into contact with water.
Comment
Specialists opting for and/or fitting and customize these products, should use their professional judgment
in choosing the product, fitting it and adequately educating the patient or care giver so as to minimize
potential risks for each individual patient. These risks may include the mentioned contraindications, but
may also be associated with the unique patient characteristics or circumstances of the patient's care giver.
Used materials
The MultiMotion functional corrective joints incorporate components made of various types of
materials, including:
Steel/stainless steel
Brass
Synthetic PC ABS
Maintenance recommendation
The tension spring in the orthosis has already been greased during joint assembly. If the tension
spring needs to be greased again, a standard white grease (e.g. Molykote) should be used.
Insufficient grease on the tension spring may cause undesired friction sounds.
We recommend checking the joints at least once every six months,
or as often as the instrument maker decides in the patient's individual situation, for functionality and
wear and tear.
