 Knee Brace Amputation

User Instructions

1. Introduction

1.1. Foreword

Dynamic spring-loaded orthoses can be used 
to treat joint contractures caused by both 
neurological and orthopaedic conditions. 
The shortening of the tissue surrounding the 
joint decreases the range of motion affecting 
the patient’s everyday life. Therefore, our 
CDS

®

 concept aims to increase the range of 

motion without pain by applying a constant, 
appropriate low load prolonged stretch (LLPS).

1.2. Customer information

For your own safety please read through these 
User Instructions carefully and accurately 
before using the brace. The instructions, notes 
and procedures must be read and understood 
thoroughly in order to benefit from the correct 
operation and use of the device. If anything 
in the User Instructions is not clear, or any 
instructions, operating procedures or safety 
information is not fully understandable, please 
contact the appropriate specialist retailer or 
albrecht GmbH directly, before you use the 
brace. This particularly applies to the safety 
instructions.

1.3. Mode of operation

The 

CDS

®

 Knee Brace Amputation

 is based 

on the CDS

®

-principle and can be used for 

the treatment of extension deficits in the 
knee joint. The dynamic stretch stimulates the 
healthy growth of the shortened tissue. 

The 

adjustable redression range protects the 
tissue from painful overstretching and 
allows for individual extension until -15°.

1.4. Application

The brace has been designed exclusively for 
the orthotic treatment of the knee joint.

1.5. Scope of delivery

Please check the completeness of the brace at 
delivery.

of the

®
