Product Advantages
Precise Control for Phased Rehabilitation
The core advantage of the brace lies in its adjustability. Using calibrated hinges, the range of motion for knee flexion and extension can be precisely set (e.g., 0–30°, 0–60°, 0–90°) or locked at a specific angle. This means a single brace suffices for the entire rehabilitation journey-from initial post-operative immobilization to the gradual restoration of movement-eliminating the need to switch supports.
Effective Stabilization to Prevent Secondary Injury
The brace provides robust lateral support and anteroposterior stabilization, effectively replacing plaster casts by restricting non-physiological knee movements. It safeguards reconstructed ligaments, repaired menisci, or fracture sites against secondary injuries caused by accidental strain or instability, thereby significantly shortening recovery time.
Pain and Swelling Relief
By limiting joint movement and providing moderate compression, the brace reduces tension on the joint capsule, alleviating acute post-operative pain and soft-tissue swelling. Proper fixation angles (such as 15–30° of flexion) position the joint for optimal comfort and function during the early stages of recovery.
Improved Compliance and Ease of Use
Compared to traditional, heavy, and non-breathable plaster casts, adjustable braces are lightweight. Patients can easily put them on and take them off for wound care, ice therapy, or early-stage isometric muscle exercises; this facilitates adherence to the rehabilitation plan while making it easier to maintain good hygiene.
Facilitation of early functional exercise
During the later stages of rehabilitation, gradually increasing the range of motion-while allowing patients to perform safe, progressive flexion and extension exercises under the protection of a brace-effectively prevents joint stiffness and muscle atrophy, thereby shortening the transition period from bed rest to weight-bearing.
Product Applicability
Postoperative Rehabilitation (Primary Application)
Post-ligament reconstruction/repair: e.g., Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) or Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) reconstruction; repair of medial/lateral collateral ligaments.
Meniscus surgery: Post-meniscal repair (suturing) requires limiting the knee flexion angle to prevent suture rupture.
Post-fracture surgery: Following internal fixation for distal femoral, tibial plateau, or patellar fractures; requires maintaining limb alignment and providing stable protection.
Post-arthrolysis/debridement: Requires controlling the range of motion during the early postoperative period to prevent excessive irritation.
Conservative Treatment and Injury Protection
Ligament injuries: Grade I–II medial/lateral collateral ligament tears; acute-phase immobilization not requiring surgery.
Bone contusions and minor fractures: Non-displaced hairline fractures or severe bone contusions requiring strict immobilization.
Patellar instability: Provides temporary immobilization in full extension following the reduction of an acute patellar dislocation.
Severe soft tissue contusions: Extensive muscle or tendon strains causing knee joint instability.
Acute Exacerbation of Chronic Conditions
Acute inflammatory phase of severe knee osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis: Immobilization at a specific angle helps alleviate weight-bearing pain, control inflammation, and prevent joint contracture deformities.
Product Features
Multi-angle adjustable hinge with degree markings
Features high-strength medical-grade alloy or engineering plastic hinges on both sides, equipped with clear degree markings.
Supports stepless or incremental adjustment from 0° to 120°; includes a quick-lock lever or knob that allows for either complete angle locking (e.g., fixed extension) or setting a specific range of motion (e.g., 0°–30° flexion/extension), ensuring precise and silent operation.
Ergonomic pre-contoured structure
The brace frame is pre-contoured to the physiological curves of the thigh and lower leg, ensuring a snug fit that prevents the brace from rotating or slipping down the leg.
Features widened, curved arm supports that evenly distribute pressure to prevent localized pressure sores, making it particularly suitable for the post-operative swelling phase.
Skin-friendly, breathable, and washable lining
The inner layer is made of composite materials-such as high-resilience foam, Lycra, or velvet-that are soft and moisture-wicking, helping to minimize friction and allergic reactions.
The lining attaches to the frame via Velcro, allowing for easy removal and washing to maintain hygiene and reduce the risk of odors and incision-site infections.
Highly adaptable strapping system
Typically equipped with 3 to 5 widened, thickened, and highly adhesive Velcro straps; tightness can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate changes in limb swelling post-surgery, ensuring secure fixation without compromising blood circulation.
Some designs incorporate anti-slip silicone strips on the posterior thigh or calf sections to further enhance stability.
