Knee brace OKD-12

Patella dislocation / subluxation

Patellar dislocation is very common injury in sport, especially in women, and it’s typically caused by a direct blow or a sudden twist of the leg.

There is two types of dislocation:

•  Traumatic – connected with pain, haematoma and limited motion of the knee. Stretching and rupturing are the results. After injury, the dislocations are recurrent.
•  Habitual – it means that every knee flexion and extension cause mal-tracking of patella into lateral side.

The reasons of kneecap dislocations are: knee valgus, ligaments with joint capsule laxity and when the patella sits higher on the knee than normal.
After patella dislocation, patient feels hypermobility of kneecap, hematoma, sweeling and limited motion with weak muscles.

The best protection before or after injury is our patellar subluxation brace OKD-12.

MATERIALS

ActivePren™

ActivePren™ is an active three-layer material consisting of two elastic jersey cover fabrics and a core made of neoprene foam. This material is characterized by softness and high flexibility. A very important advantage of this material is the fact that it is not a knitted product, it does not have thick fibers, so that the weaves of the material do not imprint on the patient's skin and do not cause abrasionsin places of high compression. Products made of ActivePren are the strongest and most effective stabilizing orthoses available on the market.

ActiveSpace™

ActiveSpace™ is a spacer, polyamide 3D lamination with high skin ventilation. It is very lightweight, consisted of 2 layers. Between them, we use polyamide braids. ActiveSpace™ is not elastic what improves stabilization. Inside the lamination, between 2 layers, the air flows freely, maintaining minimal water and moisture absorption. Waterproof material.
