Pure carbon threads are woven into this moisture-wicking, highly breathable and cooling antimicrobial fabric to naturally repel odor and provide temperature control. New, easy-to-use integrated dual-action dial allows on-the-fly hinge adjustment for comfortable, convenient offloading of the knee anytime, anywhere. E-Z Grip handles and intuitive wraparound design ensure form-fitting comfort; brace is easily adjustable for more or less compression based on patient needs and comfort. Semi-rigid cuffs concealed in the thigh and calf provide comfortable support and confidence. Knee braces like this one have been shown to improve walking distances in patients with osteoarthritis of the knee. Indications Moderate to severe unicompartmental osteoarthritis Moderate to severe ligament instabilities Post-operative rehabilitation It is not suitable for patients with more than one compartment involved. Information on OrderingHow do you avoid a mistake when ordering for your patient? This product should be ordered after the doctor has made the measurements with you in clinic and then fitted and adjusted by the doctor at your next clinic visit to avoid mistakes in the process of off loading the correct affected side of the knee. Choose the right size by marking the mid point of the patella with the patient standing in the schuss position. Measure the circumference of the thigh at 15cm above this point. Before you choose from the drop down list write down your patients indication (is the medial or lateral compartment affected) then the side and finally size before you even touch the drop down menu. x=1=XS=33-39 cm x=2=S=39-47 cm x=3=M=47-53 cm x=4=L=53-60 cm x=5=XL=60-67 cm x=6=XXL=67-75 cm x=7=XXXL=75-81 cm Tip on the use of drop down menusAfter you have chosen, click off the menu and unbold the choice before you roll your mouse wheel because you might inadvertantly change your choice with the roll of the wheel.
