DONNING AND DOFFING THE UTX

The UTX-SWING orthosis is put on while sitting. To achieve this, the orthosis must first be

unlocked by hand. Straighten the knee hinge of the orthosis, make a dorsal flexion at the ankle

hinge (bring the foot up) and bend the orthosis.

The orthosis is put on the leg while it's in a 90 degree angle. In some cases, the foot is first

placed on the foot support, so the foot and foot support can be inserted together in the

shoe. In other cases, the foot support is first placed in the shoe. The strap below the knee is

fastened first. The order to fasten the remaining three straps is up to your liking.

The UTX-ESF / STABIL orthosis is also put on while seated. To do so, the orthosis must first

be unlocked by hand. Straighten the knee hinge of the orthosis, push the button at the top of

the orthosis and bend the orthosis.

On our YouTube channel you can find a tutorial how the UTX can be donned and doffed.
