Thigh FS Cuff
The Thigh FS Cuff is an ergonomic orthosis that fits over the hamstrings or
quadriceps muscles. The Thigh FS Cuff is designed to be used in unison
with the L300 FS Cuff, to assist with knee flexion or extension throughout
the gait cycle. See Figure 3.
The Thigh FS Cuff is available in right and left configurations, and houses an
integrated Thigh RF Stim Unit and two surface electrodes. The Thigh RF Stim
Unit produces the stimulation signal. The electrodes deliver the stimulation
signal from the Thigh RF Stim Unit to the hamstrings or quadriceps muscles.
