Description
ORLAU Ankle CCD | Contracture Correction Made Easier
The ORLAU Ankle Contracture Correction Device is an innovative and highly effective solution for ankle rehabilitation. This custom-made Contracture Correction Device (CCD) is fitted with the pioneering ORLAU Ankle CCD Lever Kit, a revolutionary accessory that addresses the long-standing challenge of difficult donning and doffing. This patient-friendly system makes daily stretching of tight lower limb structures easier, helping to improve ankle mobility over time.
This device is the result of a collaboration between the Orthotic Research & Locomotor Assessment Unit (ORLAU) and Ricoh 3D, creating a cost-effective, ergonomic, and easy-to-use solution for patients and orthotists across the UK.
The ORLAU Ankle CCD offers several key features that provide significant benefits to both patients and carers. The 3D-printed lever makes the donning and doffing process simple and ergonomic by temporarily disconnecting the stretching torque, which greatly enhances the user experience. In addition, our Custom Fabrication division can fit the ORLAU Ankle CCD Lever Kit to a wide range of AFOs and KAFOs, offering a tailored solution for even the most complex conditions. This versatile device applies a controlled stretching force to the affected joint, gradually helping to lengthen tight soft tissues and improve range of motion. By making the device easier to use without the need for additional tools, patients are more likely to wear it consistently, leading to more effective rehabilitation and a better overall outcome.
If you are purchasing the kit only, the Ankle CCD Lever Kit comprises two lever assemblies. When you order Quantity: 1, you will receive one kit, which includes two levers. For every unit you order, you’ll receive two levers. For example, if you order Quantity: 2, you will receive four levers.
