Static Alignment - College Park odyssey K3 Instrucciones Técnicas

ASSEMBLY AND DISASSEMBLY (FOR SOCK REPLACEMENT)
EN
Use the Foot Horn to don and doff the foot shell. Remove the CPI Sock and replace as needed. Any further
disassembly or modification of components will void the warranty.
HYDRAULIC RANGE
The Odyssey K3 foot has 12º of hydraulic motion. The foot is designed to provide 3º hydraulic dorsiflexion from
the neutral standing position.
The foot was developed utilizing a dynamic carbon fiber base. As a result, a typical user will experience an
additional range of dynamic motion
during ambulation.
Note: Excessive angular adjustment will affect the hydraulic range of the foot. After making an alignment
change, ensure that the user retains 3º of hydraulic dorsiflexion.

STATIC ALIGNMENT

For optimal function, balance the patient's weight evenly between the heel and toe.
▪ The Odyssey K3 was designed with a 3/8" (10 mm) heel rise.
▪ The load line divides the foot at 1/3 heel lever and 2/3 toe lever.
Using a 3mm hex key for adjustment, the hydraulic valves should be set at minimum resistance. Have the user
stand comfortably and evaluate the heel-toe balance of the foot.
They will sense the hydraulic movement of the ankle but should not feel like they are falling forward or backward.
Use alignment to position the foot at the point where they feel the most balanced.
SYMPTOM
Falling Backward
Falling Forward
DYNAMIC ADJUSTMENTS
Have the user begin by walking on level ground, to evaluate the heel-toe resistance and gait timing. Using a 3mm
hex key, adjust for planterflexion resistance first, then dorsiflexion.
Finalize dynamic alignment by observing the user walking on an inclining-declining surface (ramp). Make further
adjustments to the resistance valves as necessary.
▪ Posterior (Figure 4A)
Planterflexion resistance affects the user's gait from Heel Strike to Foot Flat.
Dorsiflexion resistance affects the user's gait through Midstance, as the body travels over the foot.
DESIRED RESULT
Firmer Planterflexion
Softer Planterflexion
Firmer Dorsiflexion
Softer Dorsiflexion
ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS
Have the user practice standing up from a seated position in order to acclimate to the motion of the ankle. Use
caution when driving. Make sure the user is comfortable with the motion of the ankle if using the Odyssey K3 as
their driving foot.
WARNING
▪ Do not expose this product to corrosive materials, salt water or pH extremes.
▪ Contaminants such as dirt and the use of lubricants or powder may effect the function of the CPI Sock and
lead to noise.
▪ Failure to follow these technical instructions or use of this product outside the scope of its Limited Warranty
may result in injury to the patient or damage to the product.
