Similar to the Z12, the double upright Axiom Adjustable OA has upgraded to a built-in adjustable condyle. Ideal for patients with an active lifestyle who may need additional support due to ligamentous instability, the new adjustable condyle will allow patients to make minor load adjustments by sliding the loading lever to the next setting.
