Clinic modality and home based system

• Leadless: user friendly replacement

• Conductive Grid: uniform distribution of current

• Optimal Contact Area: improve patient comfort

• Proprietary Electrode / Orthosis interface: provides accurate electrode placement

The L300™Conventional Systems: The Problem

Maximize patient comfort

In a survey* performed in 2002 among 98 users of non-invasive,

drop foot stimulators, the following was found:

13% - Reported that they have no problems72% - Problem with finding the correct electrode positions 58% - Difficulties with wires and foot-switches 25–30% of the users ultimately reject the device

L300 Cloth Electrode: An Alternative Choice

• The cloth electrodes are designed to be skin friendly provide an alternative for persons who do not prefer or have sensitivities to the standard L300 electrodes and/or other known sensitivities (e.g. allergy or skin sensitivity to tape/adhesive).

The L300: Impact on Gait Rhythmicity

Hausdorff JM, Ring H: Effects of a new radio frequency– controlled neuroprosthesis on gait symmetry and rhythmicity in patients with chronic hemiparesis. Am J Phys Med Rehabil. 2008;87:4–13.

• Stride Time is the duration of the gait cycle.

• Data on graph is raw stride time data for one individual.

• Stride Time Variability (STV) is a measure of the stride to stride variability.

STV = SD of Stride Time X 100

Mean Stride Time

• STV has been associated with risk for falls.
