With the Compact version of the C-Leg®, those with lower mobility and higher security needs can also benefit from the most important aspects of C-Leg® technology. The Compact offers features such as unprecedented stability and a remote control that enables the user to lock the knee between 0˚ and 30˚ for long periods of standing.

Features

The Compact is designed for transfemoral prosthetic users who place a premium on safety and stability but won’t miss all the functionality of microprocessor swing phase control. This knee is excellent for the indoor walker who doesn’t take dramatic shifts in speed or direction. The Compact’s smooth responsiveness, reliability, and stance security is ideal for the person who moves more slowly, but requires the microprocessor stance control to maximize stability. The knee keeps stable when needed, free-swinging during swing phase—and always ready to support the user in case of a stumble.

Transformative technology
As with the C-Leg®, the revolutionary microprocessor that controls the Compact receives feedback from multiple sensors, allowing the knee to make adjustments in real-time.

Always a secure step
The Compact offers tremendous stability. Whether you’re doing chores around the house or yard, you’ll step easily with the assurance that the Compact is there for you.

Stumble recovery
Whenever the Compact senses that you’re in an insecure position—such as when you trip or stumble—it will increase resistance to provide the support you need to recover.

Stand at ease
A Standing Mode lets you lock the leg yourself (using a specific motion pattern) between 0º and 30º, helping you use less energy when you’re standing for longer periods of time. A vibration alert lets you know when the Standing Mode is engaged and disengaged.

Switch over
Switching between modes is as easy as bouncing on your toe.
