Foot drop system innoSTEP-WL – Removing the cuff

Removing the cuff from stimulation unit

The wireless foot drop system innoSTEP-WL can directly compensate the weak foot dorsiflexion and is very easy to maintain. The cuff is fixed to the stimulation unit via press studs and can be removed easily if it is to be washed or replaced.
 
In order to achieve an optimal stimulation and natural gait pattern, the cuff with integrated electrodes allows an extensive stimulation of peroneal nerve and shin muscles. Additionally, the correct application on the affected leg is very easy. To ensure hygienic wearing comfort, the cuff should be washed regulary. For this, please choose a mild, unparfumed washing agent and manually wash the cuff with 30° warm water.
 
To detach the cuff from the stimulation unit, please follow the following steps:

• Feel with your fingers for the press studs beneath the tissue electrodes and carefully open them with your fingernail.
• Open the velcro fastener, which attaches the cuff to the stimulation unit.
• Carefully pull the stimulation unit out of the cuff.
