Helix3D prosthesis solution

You expect comfort, dynamics, and safety from a prosthetic hip joint? Then you will find the benefits of our innovative Helix3D hip joint system convincing. It is the world's first hip joint that is able to hydraulically control three-dimensional movements in the swing and stance phase.

You expect comfort, dynamics, and safety from a prosthetic hip joint? Then you will find the benefits of our innovative Helix3D hip joint system convincing. It is the world's first hip joint that is able to hydraulically control three-dimensional movements in the swing and stance phase.

The Helix3D system is suitable for a body weight up to 100 kgs (220.46 lbs). This translates into significant gains in terms of safety and comfort for hip disarticulation patients and pelvic amputees (hemipelvectomy).

Functionality

Natural movement thanks to 3D technology

The patented multi-axis joint structure

  • Produces a three-dimensional hip movement to compensate for pelvic rotation and promotes a symmetrical and natural gait pattern. (Fig. 1)
  • Permits shortening of the leg in the swing phase with the objective of reducing the risk of falling, thereby improving functional safety.
  • Ensures optimal sitting characteristics and reduces pelvic obliquity to a minimum.
  • Permits a large flexion angle to provide relief in everyday situations such as putting on shoes or getting into a car.
