What is the C-Brace and who can benefit from it?
The C-Brace is a microprocessor-controlled Knee-Ankle-Foot-Orthosis (KAFO) that responds to everyday movements and situations in real-time. This helps to ensure safety, stability, and confidence in your everyday life.
The C-Brace allows users with leg paralysis to walk on uneven terrain, safely walk backward, and go down stairs and slopes step over step.
C-Brace users can enjoy activities with their friends and family in a completely new way. People with neurological indications of the lower limbs can benefit from the C-Brace. The leading indication is incomplete spinal cord injury (between L1 and L5) with very minor to no spasticity, as well as post-polio syndrome.
Technology
How does the C-Brace work?
The C-Brace consists of individually fabricated thigh, calf, and foot components. An ankle joint connects the foot and calf components. Through the use of sensors, the C-Brace joint unit knows where it is in space and how fast you are walking, meaning it can alter the hydraulics in the joint unit accordingly.
