Knee support Genu Arexa 50K13N

Indications

Pain in the knee joint with severe or combined incompetence of the ligamentous apparatus and / or with a feeling of instability, with the need for permanent or temporary restriction of flexion and / or extension.

Rehabilitation after operations on the ligamentous apparatus of the knee joint (anterior and/or posterior cruciate, medial and/or lateral lateral ligaments).

Instability of the knee joint due to damage to the anterior and / or posterior cruciate ligaments (use of an orthosis in the preoperative period or permanently in chronic conditions).

Severe and / or combined post-traumatic instability of the ligamentous apparatus of the joint (with damage to the anterior and posterior cruciate, as well as the medial and lateral lateral ligaments in various combinations).

Severe and / or combined instability of the ligamentous apparatus of the joint due to degenerative lesions (severe

gonarthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis).

Conservative treatment of injuries of the lateral ligaments of the knee joint.

The need to stabilize / limit the range of motion in the knee joint with meniscal lesions, after surgical interventions on the menisci.

Severe instability in patellofemoral pain syndrome (chondromalacia of the patella, arthrosis of the femoropatellar joint).

Impact

• Provides rigid fixation of the knee joint in the sagittal plane (reduction of the "anterior drawer" symptom), reliable lateral stabilization and supportive effect due to the external support frame.

• Promotes the restoration of proprioception (joint-muscular feeling) and active stabilization of the joint by coordinating the work of its own muscles.

• Prevents hyperextension (overextension) and excessive flexion in the knee joint.

• Allows you to set the required range of motion in the knee joint.

• Reduces or eliminates pain.

Specifications

• The frame of the orthosis is made of light and durable alloy with a coating that protects against scratches and corrosion.

• The design is lightweight and anatomically designed to provide a snug fit and exact fit to the contours of the patient's leg.

• By tightening the fixing straps, the flexible plastic wings of the orthosis adapt themselves to the shape of the thigh and lower leg.

• The polycentric joints are equipped with the innovative Click2Go system: the desired range of motion can be set using the flexion (6°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°) and extension (6°) limiters , 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°). 

• Limiters are installed without additional tools, the angles are independently adjustable.

• Condylar pads made of TechnoGel® material create dosed local pressure in the area of ​​the joint space and provide reliable lateral stabilization of the joint. The Click2Go system makes it easy to change the position of the pads according to the width of the knee using adapter rings.

• The frame and straps are equipped with comfortable softening pads. The tibial cushioning pad eliminates excess pressure on the tibia and prevents the orthosis from moving.

• Orthosis straps have a convenient fastening with removable Velcro end fasteners, they are fastened in accordance with the numbering applied to them.

• If necessary, the knee strap can be attached above the standard level.
