Kniebrace Gonartec Plus

​

Characteristics: Lightweight and ergonomically designed, it contours to the morphology of the limb and adapts to anatomical shape changes during activities. The rigid structures for the thigh and calf are connected by a joint that allows flexion and extension control. The profile of the rigid parts is made from lower density plastic to improve comfort of use. The joint
is supplied with a pre-installed stop which locks extension at 0° (preventing hyperextension) and a screwdriver that enables the stops to be changed for flexion/extension control.
The foam fabric protections are breathable and can be easily removed for washing. The connection between the joint and the thigh piece features a hinge that enables varus or valgus axial adjustment to improve knee load distribution efficiency. It features a rapid, secure and easy to handle closure system that enables comfortable and efficient fitting and removal of the brace.

Effects: Internal or external condyle pressure to realign thigh/leg axial deviation. Medial or lateral mechanical unloading of the knee. Stabilisation and restriction of joint range of motion. Pain relief.
Indications: Mild or moderate unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis (medial or lateral). Genu valgum or varum associated with.
