Scope Of Delivery; Technical Data; Preparing The Product For Use - Otto Bock 3R15 Instructions For Use Manual

Signs of changes in or loss of functionality during use
Changes in functionality can manifest themselves, for example,
through a changed gait (swing phase, stance phase), incomplete
extension, stiffness and the development of noise.

5 Scope of delivery

The scope of delivery is shown in Figure
Only product components with reference numbers in the illustration
can be reordered separately.

7 Preparing the product for use

7.1 Information on fabrication of a prosthesis
CAUTION
Incorrect alignment, assembly or adjustment
Injuries due to incorrectly installed or adjusted as well as damaged
prosthetic components
► Observe the alignment, assembly and adjustment instructions.
CAUTION
Initial use of the prosthesis by the patient
Fall due to lack of patient experience, incorrect alignment or incor­
rect adjustment of the prosthesis
► For the safety of the patient, use a suitable device (e.g. parallel
bars, handrail, wheeled walker) during initial standing and walk­
ing.

7.2 Bench alignment of the prosthesis
INFORMATION
The prosthetic components and prosthesis shown in the illustrations
are used as examples to illustrate the general process. The instruc­
tions for use of the prosthetic components selected for the patient
contain detailed information and have to be used for fabrication of
the prosthesis.
► CAUTION! To enable the patient to stand safely, align the pros­
thesis using the alignment images for the sagittal plane
3
(Figure on page 3) and for the frontal plane (Figure
page 3) as well as the instructions for use of all prosthetic com­
ponents that were used.
► Additionally, observe the following points for the bench alignment
of the prosthesis:
5
► on page 4: Mount the prosthetic joint with its extension assist
cable as shown in the illustration.
7.3 Optimising the static alignment
► To optimise the static alignment, position the patient on the meas­
uring device.
► In the sagittal plane, check the course of the load line relative to
the marked alignment reference point and correct this if needed
6
(see Figure on page 4).
► In the frontal plane, check the course of the load line relative to
the marked points (prosthetic foot, prosthetic knee joint, spina ili­
aca anterior superior) and correct if needed (see Figure
page 4).
7.4 Optimising during dynamic trial fitting
CAUTION
Adjusting the Settings
Fall due to incorrect or unfamiliar settings
► Only adapt the settings to the patient gradually.
