Important Information

The Plié® 3 MPC Knee is a single axis prosthetic knee joint system providing microprocessor

control of both the swing and stance phases of gait. The microprocessor monitors an

embedded load sensor and an angle sensor to precisely control the transitions between the

stance and swing phases of gait. Three manual settings allow the hydraulic cylinder to provide

adjustable resistance for Stance Flexion, Swing Flexion, and Swing Extension. The hydraulic

cylinder also provides non-adjustable stance extension resistance. The Plié Control software

allows the knee function to be optimized for each individual user's gait, including the stumble

recovery parameters. The Gait Lab software provides the prosthetist with access to recorded

data files of the microprocessor for analysis and documentation.

1.1 Indications

The Plié® 3 MPC Knee is intended for use as a component in a prosthetic leg for individuals with

lower-limb loss including:

• transfemoral amputees

• knee disarticulation amputees

• hip disarticulation amputees

• individuals with congenital lower-limb abnormalities

The Plié 3 MPC Knee is appropriate for users who would benefit from the safety inherent in the

stability of a microprocessor controlled knee. These users should also have the ability or have

the potential to:

• negotiate obstacles in the community or workplace

• exert sufficient hip joint or pelvic voluntary muscle control

• ambulate with variable cadence

• descend stairs and ramps
