New High Weight Limit Harmony® Released

11/25/2003

MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA November 25, 2003- Otto Bock Health Care announces the North American launch of the new Harmony® HD, the latest addition to the Patient Comfort family of prosthetic products.
Otto Bock developed this unique volume-management system to offer the benefits of increased proprioception, improved suspension, and maximized comfort to those who need a product that functions in the 220-330 pound weight range.
“Otto Bock is always exploring new ways to apply the best of existing technology to create an outstanding product,” said Pat Chelf, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development. “We reduced the profile and weight of the Harmony PRS while adding new rotational features, increased adjustability and durability for patients in the 220-330 pound weight range.”
The Harmony HD is designed to work as a system with a family of liners and sleeves and a specialized approach to sockets, all designed to work seamlessly together, responding to the physical changes your patient frequently experiences.
Established in 1958, Minneapolis, Minnesota-based Otto Bock Health Care is the North and South American corporate headquarters of Otto Bock HealthCare, GmbH, based in Duderstadt, Germany. Otto Bock has more than 3,500 employees worldwide and produces over 20,000 types of prosthetic and orthotic components, rehabilitation products and technical plastics, and also provides information technology services.
