Genumedi pro knee brace
- Pain relief
- Stabilisation of the joint
- Anti-slip security
Description
Genumedi® pro is a knee supportto provide physiological guidance of the knee joint. Thanks to the integrated 3D silicone pad, pain can be relieved and swelling (oedema, haematomas) broken down more quickly.
The intelligent interplay between the compressive knitted fabric, additional straps and the Easyglide hinge stabilises and relieves the joint. The double silicone dot coating ensures a secure fit andoptimal anti-slip security, even during sporting activities.
The Genumedi® pro support combines a comfortable wearing feeling with stability. The orthosis gives the knee joint the necessary freedom of movement for bending and straightening the knee. Therefore, the Genumedi® pro can be used for all indicationsin which support of the physiological guidance of the knee joint is necessary, such as:
- Mild to moderate instability of the knee joint
- Osteoarthritis of the knee
- Mild collateral ligament instabilities
The Easyglide hinges of the Genumedi® pro support facilitate the physiological roll/glide movement of the knee joint. The two wrap-around and individually adjustable straps over the thigh and lower leg ensure an extra secure fit. Thanks to the unique knitting technology, the brace does not cut into the skin (medi Soft border).
The Comfort Zone in the hollow of the knee ensures a pleasant wearing feeling. The openenclosure around the patella (kneecap) provides noticeable pressure relief. Furthermore, the natural eucalyptus fibres of the Clima Comfort* technology support moisture management and are gentle to the skin. The integrated Clima Fresh function also acts to inhibit odour and is antibacterial. The standard variant of the brace is available in sizes one to seven. Sizes three to seven are now also available in extra wide. Patients with larger thigh circumferences of up to 61 cm can also be provided with a perfect fit with the Genumedi® pro knee support.
Intended purpose:
Genumedi pro is a knee support brace without limitation of extension/ flexion.
* Clima Comfort ensures a comfortable wearing feeling. Modern fibre technologies transport moisture quickly away from the skin surface and ensure high breathability.

Properties
The elaborately worked knit ensures a balanced microclimate of the skin. Moisture is transported reliably and quickly from the inner surface to evaporate from the outer surface. At the same time, the material’s active breathing structure guarantees the necessary oxygen supply.
Clima Fresh: The integrated Clima Fresh function has an odour-inhibiting effect. This is achieved via special thread technology or via special processing during the production process.
All compression garments and compression pantyhose (round knit and flat knit), anti-embolism stockings and supports are regularly tested to OEKO-TEX Standard 100 for human ecological harmful substances and assessed.

Washing Instructions
Indications
All indications in which support of the physiological guidance of the knee joint is necessary, such as:
- Light and medium instabilities of the knee joint
- Gonarthrosis
- Mild collateral ligament instabilities
Contra Indications
No general side effects are known. However, if supports (or similar aids) or the straps are too tight, local pressure effects or constriction of blood vessels or nerves may occur in individual cases. This can be overcome by opening the straps and closing less tightly. If you have any of the following complaints please conult your doctor before using the brace:
- Diseases or injuries of the skin in the area of use, especially with inflammatory symptoms (excessive warming, swelling or reddening).
- Sensitivity and perfusion disorders of the legs or feet (e.g. in the case of diabetes).
- Lymph outflow disorders, as well as undiagnosed swellings of soft tissues, apart from the area of use.
Any combination with other products (e.g. compression stockings) must be discussed in advance with the responsible doctor.
