Össur Power Knee Features and Price
Power Knee is a microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knee (MPK) developed by Össur. It provides active support for walking on flat surfaces, as well as ascending and descending ramps or stairs, and activities like standing up. These features help amputees maintain and regain their mobility, enabling them to perform daily activities with ease.
What is Össur Power Knee?
The Power Knee, produced by Össur, is the most complex and closest product to fully meeting the needs of amputees. This flawless knee joint is the result of years of work and experience by Össur engineers.
The Power Knee is the world’s first motor-driven microprocessor-controlled knee. This technology provides active assistance during flexion and extension by mimicking concentric and eccentric muscle activity. Additionally, advanced sensors accurately detect the user’s movements, and this information is transmitted to the microprocessor.
Advanced artificial intelligence analyzes the user’s needs to provide solutions and communicates this to the microprocessor. A powerful motor supports both consistent stance phase and facilitates movement during swing phase.
The Power Knee actively extends as the person rises, provides controlled resistance during walking for active flexion and extension. Additionally, it supports symmetric weight distribution and natural walking with energy recycling stance flexion.
