WalkAide® II

Next Generation FES Foot Drop Stimulator

www.oapl.com.au

YOU WALKING, ONLY BETTER ENHANCED USER EXPERIENCE

Features and Benefits• Design is slim and self-contained • Electrodes don’t need replacement • Device plugs in for charging • Fits under tight clothing • Footwear doesn’t need to change • Barefoot walking is possible • Smartphone app controls adjustments • Activity mode options include Gait mode and Training mode • App tracks number of steps walked • Water resistant against short splash duration

How the WalkAide® II WorksWhile wearing the WalkAide® II on the lower leg, an internal sensor identifies the leg motion and speed as the person takes just a few steps. Smart Technology uses that information to create a customised walking program. With each subsequent step, the WalkAide® II sends gentle, electrical impulses to nerves in the leg that tell the muscles to lift the toes. Stimulation timing adjusts to accommodate changes in walking speed, ensuring appropriate stimulation with every step. Walking and training program adjustments can be made by the user to promote optimal results.

ProgrammingThe Walkaide® II is programmed by your physician through an application on tablet or smart phone. The program will be customised to suit your level of activity and comfort. The device settings can be adjusted though the app.

Advanced Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES)The WalkAide® II is an advanced functional electrical stimulation (FES) system for the treatment of drop foot. Designed to improve walking for individuals with the inability to safely and effectively clear their toes from the ground, the WalkAide® II uses FES to assist healthy nerves and muscles. It may benefit individuals with conditions affecting the central nervous system, such as:

• Multiple Sclerosis • Stroke • Cerebral Palsy • Traumatic Brain Injury • Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury • Familial/Hereditary Spastic Paresis

Additional benefits of FES may include increased range of motion, decreased spasticity, enhanced strength and endurance, increased gait speed and improved quality of life.1
