4 Areas of Application and Usage Restrictions
Your orthosis is an orthopaedic appliance that makes it possible or easier for you to stand and
walk, or fulfils other specific requirements relevant to your condition. The Ottobock team adapted
the orthosis to the loads expected at the time of fitting. If your activity level increases in the course
of use, adjustments may be required. Changes will also have to be made if your physical condi­
tion worsens and more support from the orthosis is needed.
