What is it indicated for?

The L300 Go System is intended to provide ankle dorsiflexion in adult and pediatric individuals with foot drop and/or to assist knee flexion or extension in adult individuals with muscle weakness related to upper motor neuron disease/injury (e.g. stroke, damage to pathways to the spinal cord). The L300 Go System electrically stimulates muscles in the affected leg to provide ankle dorsiflexion of the foot and/or knee flexion or extension; thus, it also may improve the individual’s gait.

The L300 Go System may also:

• Facilitate muscle re-education

• Prevent/retard disuse atrophy

• Maintain or increase joint range of motion

• Increase local blood flow

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
