Introducing Avior: A New Way to Feel Confident on Your Feet 

At Blatchford, we believe mobility is more than movement. It’s about freedom, confidence, and the ability to stay connected to the things you love.

Whether you’re adjusting to a new prosthesis or rebuilding trust in your mobility, the right technology can make a world of difference. That’s why we created Avior, a new microprocessor knee designed to support lower-activity individuals. Avior offers stability, comfort, and peace of mind for everyday living. 

Built for Real-Life Moments
Daily life is full of unpredictable moments—uneven sidewalks, surprise rain showers, damp grass. Avior is designed to help you move through these situations with less worry. With a protective design that helps guard against dust and water, Avior isn’t afraid of the environments you encounter day-to-day. It’s built for real life.

Whether you’re stepping outside to grab the mail, enjoying time with family, or regaining your independence, Avior is made to support you through it. 

A Smooth, Stress-Free Start 
Beginning your journey with a new prosthetic knee can feel unfamiliar, but Avior makes the process easier. It comes with preset configurations that help your clinician get you up and moving quickly. Think of them as comfortable starting points that help you feel stable from the beginning. 

From there, your prosthetist can personalize the knee so it matches your natural rhythm and walking style. The goal is for your steps to feel smooth, steady, and predictable—staying with you to regain confidence as you return to daily activities and everyday life. 

Features That Help You Feel Secure and Supported 
Avior includes thoughtful features designed to make everyday walking feel more natural: 

  • Smoother first steps: When your foot touches down, Avior helps absorb shock, reducing impact and making walking feel gentler on your body. 
  • Balanced swing motion: As your leg moves forward, the knee helps guide it smoothly, helping your steps feel even and controlled. 
  • Support on slopes and stairs: Walking downhill, stepping off a curb, or navigating a ramp can feel intimidating. Avior gives you extra stability in these moments—helping you focus on where you’re going rather than how to get there. 

These features work together to help walking feel safer and more natural, especially if you’re rebuilding your confidence after an injury or limb loss. 

Care That Continues Between Appointments 
Avior also connects to an app that helps your clinician support you even when you’re not in the clinic. It lets your care team view information about your walking patterns—like step count and rhythm—based on your real, everyday movement. 

This can help your clinician: 

  • Track your progress over time 
  • Understand how you move outside the clinic 
  • Make adjustments even more quickly 
  • Provide support even if travel is difficult 

It’s care that looks at the full picture of your mobility. Not just a single clinic visit. 

Designed With You in Mind 
Blatchford has been innovating prosthetic technology for decades, always with the same goal: helping people live fuller, more confident lives. Avior continues that commitment by offering a knee that’s reliable, intuitive, and truly supportive of real-world mobility. 

Whether you’re taking your first steps with a new prosthesis or returning to familiar routines, Avior is made to help you move forward with confidence.
