1 Description and Purpose
Application:
These instructions are for use by the Practitioner.
The elite blade is to be used exclusively as part of a lower limb prosthesis.
A lightweight, high energy return foot, ideal for high impact use from the casual jogger to the
serious runner. The flexible extended pylon reduces shock load transmission making it suitable
for work, leisure and sports activities. Independent heel and toe springs provide axial deflection.
The split toe provides good ground compliance.
This device is recommended for users that have the potential to achieve Activity Level 3 or 4. Of
course there are exceptions and in our recommendation we want to allow for unique, individual
circumstances and any such decision should be made with sound and thorough justification.
Contra-indications:
This device may not be suitable for Activity Level 1 individuals or for competitive sports events,
as these types of users will be better served by a specially designed prosthesis optimized for their
needs.
Intended for single user.
Ensure that the user has understood all instructions for use, drawing particular attention to the
