3 Patient information

The MyoWrist Transcarpal 10V38=* has been developed for everyday ac-
tivities and must not be used for unusual activities such as extreme sports
(free climbing, skydiving, paragliding, etc.). Careful handling of the prosthe-
sis and its components not only increases their service life but, above all,
ensures the patient's safety! Should the prosthesis be subjected to unusual
stresses (such as a fall), immediately contact your prosthetist and have the
pros thesis inspected for any damage. If necessary, the prosthetist will pass
the prosthesis on to Ottobock Myo-Service. Any damaged components may
only be repaired by the certified Ottobock Myo-Service.
Attention!
• Kindly note that when carrying heavy objects in case of full flexion
or extension this might cause a torque moment that unintentionally
makes the hand rotate.
• Make sure the hand can flex unintentionally, if the flexion switch
has been pressed erroneously.
