NESS L300
NESS L300™ - Overview

The NESS L300™ system is a state-of-the-art FES (Functional Electrical Stimulation) system designed to help patients with life altering neurological disorders affecting lower extremities- including sufferers of stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy. The NESS L300 is a low-profile device worn on the lower leg and foot, which enables easier, more natural walking and a return to a more normal lifestyle. In addition to facilitating a more fluid gait, the NESS L300 may also stimulate muscle re-education, prevent/retard disuse atrophy, maintain or increase joint range of motion and increase blood flow.

Advanced Technology in Rehabilitation
The NESS L300 utilizes proprietary technology that not only lets you walk smoother, but faster as well. And, only the NESS L300 has a built in sensor that recognizes the surface you are walking on and adjusts accordingly. It is also a much more streamlined device compared to other available options. There are no bulky wires to deal with and the compact design even allows patients to wear their normal footwear. It's also easy for patients to use. Unlike some systems, that can't easily be taken off and on, the NESS L300 is surprisingly simple-making it ideal for inpatient or outpatient use.
The NESS L300™ fits snugly on the leg without cumbersome wires

Central nervous system injuries often cause a gait disorder called "Foot Drop" which is the inability to raise the foot while walking and therefore results in dragging of the foot, instability and increased effort during gait. The NESS L300™ is designed to improve gait in people suffering from foot drop as a result of a central nervous system injury or disease.

The NESS L300™ system is comprised of an Electronic Orthosis, Foot Sensor and Control Unit. These components communicate wirelessly, thus enabling easy and comfortable use without cumbersome wires. The NESS L300™ delivers electrical pulses to the Peroneal Nerve which controls the movement of the calf muscles, causing them to raise the foot at the appropriate phase of walking and therefore prevents foot drop.

The Orthosis can be used single-handedly and its advanced ergonomic design ensures constant and snug contact between the user's limb and its integrated electrodes. While walking, the Foot Sensor detects whether the foot is in the air or on the ground and transmits that information to the rest of the system which accordingly activates the foot.

The wireless Control Unit displays information regarding the system's status and manages the various system components. The NESS L300™ system incorporates cutting edge technology and sophisticated ergonomics in order to improve the patient’s walking and quality of life
