Indications

• conservative treatment of advanced unilateral osteoarthritis or complex ligamentous instability, particularly in combination with unilateral osteoarthritis
• post-operative pressure relief and compartmental protection after fractures of the tibial head, cartilage surgery, meniscus refixation, correction osteotomy
• instability of the cruciate ligaments with pressure relief of the medial or lateral compartment
• for functional pre or post-operative care of knee instabilities

Mode of action

• protection, stabilisation, pain relief and restoration of mobility
• pressure relief of the medial or lateral joint compartment by the 3-point-principle which off-loads the affected compartment
• stabilisation of the knee joint by the 4-point principle to counteract instability which is often associated with osteoarthritis
• prevents hyper-extension and offers limitation of flexion and extension

Features

• precise and effective valgus or varus pressure exerted across the knee joint
• wide, cushioned frame padding for the 3-point pressure relief system
• malleable frame design to reduce torsional forces and ultra-flat, light weight frame and hinge construction
• pressure relief of the medial or lateral compartment by the 3-point principle which off-loads the knee into a varus or valgus position
• extension limitation at: 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°
• flexion limitation at: 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°, 120°
• immobilisation at: 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°
• under sleeve and knee guard available on request
