L300 Go System

Improved mobility. Made easier.

People who have suffered a stroke or brain injury, or are living with conditions such as MS, or incomplete paralysis often experience drop foot which can inhibit their ability to walk. The L300 Go system is designed to lift your foot as you walk, improving your gait pattern and making it smoother and safer. This device can also be used for knee instability and promotes muscle rehabilitation. The L300 Go stimulates the affected nerves and the muscles that they control and can therefore initiate dorsiflexion as well as knee flexion/extension. This has proven to enhance the individual’s ability to walk unaided and therefore enjoy a higher level of independence.

L300 Go - Benefits at a Glance.

L300 Go – stimulating and stabilising

Well-balanced foot control

L300Go-Lower-Leg-Cuff-5

With just a single electrode and two stimulation channels, the L300 Go can precisely control the lifting of the foot as well as internal and external rotation.

Handy user app

Lower-leg-cuff-and-mobile-user-app

A user app for smartphones lets you control the system and measure your activity, such as the number of steps. The results are easy to track and document.

Easy to put on with one hand

The lower leg cuff features a modern closure system, so you can easily put on the L300 Go with just one hand.

No foot sensor required

Acceleration sensors monitor movement patterns during walking in all three planes. This also eliminates the need for a foot sensor.

Long-term, reproducible fitting

Long-term-reproducible-fitting (1)

A tablet with Bluetooth connection is available to qualified personnel for fitting the L300 Go. This allows the system to be fine tuned at any time. These data are reproducible and can be accessed at any time for long-term gait rehabilitation.

L100 Go System

Improved mobility. Made easier.

The L100 Go system was developed for people with drop foot, which can occur due to diseases of the central nervous system such as a stroke, multiple sclerosis, or cerebral palsy. It works on the basis of functional electrical stimulation (FES). With FES, electrical impulses activate the nerves which the central nervous system can no longer control – in this case, the nerves and thus the muscles that are responsible for lifting the foot. This improves your gait pattern, making it smoother and safer. The orthosis can also contribute to muscle rehabilitation and promote mobility in the joint as well as circulation.

L100 & L300 Go Frequently Asked Questions.

What is the difference between the L100 Go and L300 Go systems?

The L100 Go is a single-channel system. This version is a device for users for whom adequate physiological dorsiflexion is possible with single-channel stimulation and who have no additional instability of the knee or weak thigh muscles.

What is functional electrical stimulation (FES)?

FES is the use of low-voltage stimulation to restore or improve functions in case of neurological damage or injuries.

What are the benefits of FES in case of paralysis or paresis (partial loss of movement)?

FES can improve the movements you want to make with your limbs. It can also retrain your musculature, prevent atrophy (amyotrophia), improve the radius of movement, and boost local blood circulation.

How does FES enable body movements?

The brain sends electrical signals to your body via the nervous system. These signals tell the body how to move. If this natural communication between the brain and lower limbs is interrupted by injuries or diseases, it can lead to muscle weakness or paralysis. Sometimes, a muscle and its nerve connections are healthy, but communication cannot take place from the brain because there is a problem with the central nervous system. In this case, FES can be used to replace these natural electrical signals from the brain so that weak or paralysed limbs can be moved again.
