Switching threshold

: : Adjustment range; : Reduce switching threshold (lower weight required to initiate the
swing phase); : Increase switching threshold (higher weight required to initiate the swing
phase)
INFORMATION: The weight to initiate the swing phase refers to the force used to push the pros­
thetic knee joint into hyperextension so that the stance phase flexion resistance is deactivated
again at the end of the stance phase, and therefore does not slow down or prevent the flexion
movement into the swing phase. Aside from the patient's weight and height, the size and stiffness
of the prosthetic foot, the prosthetic alignment and the individual gait dynamics also play a role
here.
