Lower-extremity support OKD-38

Knee instability

When you knee is instable, you may feel the sensation of the knee twisting or moving from side to side when doing basic activities. Your knee may be painful and range of motion limited. Chronic knee instability causes weight-bearing pressure in the knee area and degeneration. Usually, the reason of the knee instability are ligaments injuries, arthritic knee or patellar tracking problems. Our one size hinged knee brace OKD-38 offers knee stabilization and reduces the pain.

MATERIALS

UniPren™

UniPren™ is a universal 3-layer material consisting of an external elastic polyamide cover knit with a self-adhesive function, an internal neoprene foam core and an elastic jersey cover knit. This material is characterized by softness and very 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 UniPren™ are the strongest and most effective stabilizing orthoses available on the market. Self-adhesive function, the raw material makes it much easier to use.

STIFFENINGS

Splint 1

Splints (1) - single axis orthopaedic splints, used mainly in all types of knee braces. They provide excellent frontal stabilization, maintaining the low weight simultaneously. Due to their properties, they are preferred among all groups of patients, especially elderly. Splints are made of high quality of aluminium alloy, therefore they are light and firm, and guarantee correct functioning of the product. Each one is equipped with a hyperextension blockade, keeping the knee joint in the 5° flection.

PADDINGS

Patella stabilizers

Relief stabilizers of various shapes made in 2D technology. They are made of relieving foams connected on one side with a fabric friendly to the patient's skin, and on the other with a gripper, thanks to which the stabilizer can be attached to the adhesive element of the orthosis. Thanks to such a structure, these pads do not have to be sewn into the orthosis, and they can simply be fastened to it from the inside. These elements have an anatomical shape and are made of comfortable foam with proper hardness and elasticity, which guarantees the proper therapeutic effect.
