Patient hazard –
− It is important that the patient's
position is anatomically correct.
Therefore, carefully verify the following
settings/positions:
1. femur length
2. knee joint axis
3. tibia length and leg rotation
4. leg support assemblies
− Movements must not cause any pain
or irritation.
− The patient must be fully conscious
while being instructed in the use of
the CPM device and when using the
device.
− The choice of the therapy param-
eters to program is restricted to the
responsible physician or therapist.
The physician or therapist must de-
cide on a case-by-case basis whether
the device can be used with a particu-
lar patient.
− The patient must be familiar with the
functions of the ARTROMOT®-K1
classic control pendant and the
control pendant must be within
easy reach of the patient, allowing
him or her to stop therapy if needed.
Patients unable to operate the con-
trol pendant, e.g. paralytic patients,
must never be left unattended during
therapy.
The ARTROMOT®-K1 classic must
only be used with accessories ap-
proved by DJO.
− Do not allow parts of the body or
any objects (such as blankets, cush-
ions, or cables) to get caught in the
moving parts of the CPM device.
− Modifications to the medical device
described in this document without
the manufacturer's written consent
are prohibited.
− The simultaneous treatment of both
legs by simultaneous use of two CPM
devices is not permitted because the
motion elements might interfere with
each other.
− Stability of the CPM device must al-
ways be ensured while it is in use. The
ARTROMOT-K1 classic must only be
set up on surfaces that guarantee its
stability. Very soft or instable surfaces
(such as waterbeds) are NOT suitable.

leakage currents will not cause any
hazard. Please contact DJO, if you
have questions in this matter.
