»TrainCare comfort« leg guides with calf shells
The leg guides »TrainCare comfort« (fig. 65) support the lower legs
and prevent them from unintentional moving to the side, as they also
prevent the knee joints from overstretching and blocking.
For paralyzed or comatose patients it is absolutely vital to use
the »TrainCare comfort« leg guides.
The support strength level of the leg guides »TrainCare comfort« can be
individually adjusted on each leg guide separately, thus differing from
one side to the other. Stronger weight support is necessary, depending
on the position of the user or the weight of the legs. To increase the
support, please wind up the expander
1
by turning the expander coil
2
until the expander is fastened strong enough to prevent an over
stretching of the knees.
Pulling the snap-knob
3
decreases the tension of the expander again.
Please hold firmly the corresponding expander coil
2
and pull slowly
the snap-in knob.
With no expanders, the leg guides (incl. inserted legs) are at risk of
dropping down abruptly.
