Comfortable and Lightweight ProtectionThis knee sleeve is 3D Knitted and Anatomically Knitted for a more breathable and comfortable alternative to wear.
Supportive Design Allows for Easy ApplicationThe straps are durable and adjustable, so you can adjust your brace to a custom fit after you select the size that works best for you.
Adjustable Hinges—The adjustable side hinges provide medial and lateral stability to your knee and limit your range of motion in the side-to-side direction. Side-to-side movements can lead to LCL (lateral collateral ligament) or MCL (medial collateral ligament) tears, which are the ligaments that run up the sides of your knee joints.
How Does This Orthopedic Hinged Brace Help With Knee Arthritis?Osteoarthritis is one of the most common forms of arthritis you may experience in the knee. It is a degenerative, “wear-and-tear" type of arthritis that occurs most often in people 50 years of age and older, although it may occur in younger people, too. When osteoarthritis occurs, the cartilage in the knee joint gradually wears away, resulting in bone on bone contact. This is likely causing you pain during or after movement, stiffness, and tenderness within your knee. This plus-size, arthritic knee brace helps address this problem as it adds support and reduces stress on your knee.
This brace was designed to help manage pain from a number of additional knee pain conditions, including:
Intended purpose
This medical device is a support for supporting the physiological guidance of
the knee joint with circumferential Velcro fastener restraints and side guidance
splints with joints which are adjustable in their scope of movement.
Indications
Meniscus injuries, mild to moderate lateral ligament instability of the knee
joint, gonarthrosis, arthritis, bursitis.
Contraindications
Thrombosis risk, extreme varicosis, peripheral arterial occlusive disease
(PAOD), lymph drainage disorders, also unclear soft tissue swellings distal to
the aid positioned, sensory and circulatory disorders of the region of the body
treated, skin diseases in the part of the body treated, latex allergy.
Form the joint splints to the contour of the leg so that the joint splint contacts the
surface and causes no pressure sores. After this, the splints are inserted
back in the splint bags and the straps adapted, but not closed fully.
Then, slip the support over the leg so that the patella is placed centred in the
integrated silicone ring. Then, close the straps on the lower leg, followed by the thigh.
The support should now sit comfortably on the leg and not cause pressure
sores. Slight corrections to the fit of the splints can also be made without
removing them. Important: if the splints cause pressure sores and erythema,
please remove the support and have it checked by the service provider
Removal
To remove the support, open the Velcro fasteners, grasp the lower edge of the
support on the splints and pull it downwards over the foot. Close all the Velcro
fasteners in order to avoid damaging other items, e.g. to further clothing.
Material composition
Polyamide (PA), elastodiene/latex (LA), elastane (EL), viscose (CV)
The sewn in textile label provides the precise material composition.
The product contains latex and can trigger allergic reactions
