Easier through everyday life: quick and easy changing of prosthetic components
Ottobock is launching the new Quickchange Adapter 4R11. This should make it possible for amputees to detach their prosthetic foot or now also their knee-foot combination from the prosthetic socket and reattach it at any time.
The Quickchange Adapter is supposed to be so easy to use that even children can exchange their prosthetic components in just a few seconds - for example, to change from an everyday to a sports prosthesis. For users, this means more freedom and flexibility for a more active life.
With the new adapter, any Ottobock sports prosthesis can be used without having to have another socket fitted. Even putting on and taking off trousers or sitting for long periods of time on trains and planes will become more comfortable thanks to the simple removal of prosthesis components.
The product will initially be available in Germany, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Spain and Portugal as well as Australia. From May 2023, the Quickchange Adapter will then be offered globally.
