Static Alignment; Dynamic Trial Fitting; Optional: Installing The Foam Cover - Ottobock 1C10 Terion Instrucciones De Uso

TF bench alignment
► Observe the information in the prosthetic knee joint instructions for use.

5.1.3 Static Alignment

• Ottobock recommends checking the alignment of the prosthesis using
the L.A.S.A.R. Posture and adapting it as needed.
• If necessary, the alignment recommendations (TF modular leg pros­
theses: 646F219*, TT modular leg prostheses: 646F336*) may be
requested from Ottobock.

5.1.4 Dynamic Trial Fitting

• Adapt the alignment of the prosthesis in the frontal plane and the sagittal
plane (e.g. by making angle or slide adjustments) to ensure an optimum
gait pattern.
TT fittings:Make sure that physiological knee movement in the sagittal
•
and frontal plane is achieved when the leg begins to bear weight after
the heel strike. Avoid medial movement of the knee joint. If the knee joint
moves in the medial direction in the first half of the stance phase, medial­
ise the prosthetic foot. If the medial movement occurs in the second half
of the stance phase, reduce the exterior rotation.
• Remove the adapter cover from the prosthetic foot after completion of
the dynamic trial fitting and gait training exercises.

5.2 Optional: Installing the foam cover

A connecting element (such as a connection plate, connection cap or foam
connection cap) provides a detachable connection between the foam cover
and the prosthetic foot.
Required materials: Degreasing cleaner (e.g. 634A58 isopropyl alco­
>
hol), 636N9 contact adhesive or 636W17 plastic adhesive
1) Measure the distance from the knee rotation point to the desired end of
the foam cover and add the compression allowance: 10 mm for poly­
ethylene foam, 30 mm for polyurethane soft foam. For TF prostheses,
add twice the compression allowance because a compression allowance
is needed both above and below the knee axis.
2) Cut the pre-shaped foam cover to length and fit it in the proximal area on
the prosthetic socket.
3) Pull the foam cover over the prosthesis.
4) Set the connecting element onto the footshell or prosthetic foot. Depend­
ing on the version, the connecting element engages in the edge or sits
on the foot adapter.
5) Mount the prosthetic foot on the prosthesis.
