Such precise regulation of the device facilitates the process of rehabilitation of damaged knee joint. Is it possible also to immobilize the knee in 0o when is it necessary. Replacing of traditional metal splint with our innovative solution allows to decrease the weight of the brace a few times. The Po-operative knee brace is made of innovative fabric UniComfort™.

LOWER LIMB ORTHOSIS AM-KD-AM/1R is a product used to limit the mobility of the knee joint after surgery, treatment and healing of knee joint injuries and as immobilization if the patient is qualified for surgery. All diseases causing deformations within the lower limb exclude the use of the AM-KD-AM/1R brace due to the risk of permanent damage. In order to stabilize the limb in the case of deformation and degenerative changes, it is recommended to use professional steel orthoses, made in specialized orthopedic centers.

STIFFENINGS

Splint 1R

1R splints – single axis orthopedic splints used in all knee joint and upper limb braces, where apart from adjustment of the flection and extension angle, high lateral stabilization of the joint is not required, but important if low weight of the brace. Due to the low weight the splints are successfully used in all braced for children. They are manufactured with high quality polyamide with carbon fibres, making the splints light and neutral to the influence of sweat and salt, properly firm therefore assuring correct functioning of the device. Adjustment of the flexion and extension angle is performed with special Allen screw in every 15°. Each brace is equipped with an Allen key, which is necessary for adjustment. Standard length of the braces is: 280 and 380 mm. The splint and its design are patented in European Union by Reh4Mat Company.

PADDINGS

3D supports

3D relief supports are independent technical solutions to relieve the rigid elements of a given orthosis. These elements are made of supporting foams or EVA foam. These foams are connected with various types of skin-friendly materials and materials with an adhesive function. These pads have the appropriate shape and color adapted to the type of orthosis. They relieve both metal elements of orthoses, such as splints, stays, underwires and orthopedic drop locks, as well as other elements that should not come into direct contact with the patient's skin. These pads have an anatomical shape and are made of comfortable foam with proper hardness and elasticity, guaranteeing the proper therapeutic effect.
