Soft upper and lower suspension sleeves and a popliteal interface combine with adjustable straps to hold the frame in position. The straps are adjusted to provide a “stop”, which controls the ability of the knee to hyper-extend.
Longer uprights (when compared to the Swedish knee Cage) reduce the amount of pressure required on the femur and tibia to control hyperextension, making the orthosis better tolerated by the patient.
Dual-axis joints allow for full knee flexion and allow each of the four uprights to move independently over each other, from extension to flexion, enabling the orthosis to follow the natural movement of the leg and prevent downward migration.
Low profile hinges with slim uprights that are easily shaped to fit the contours of the leg create an orthosis that becomes virtually unnoticeable under clothing.
Made of synthetic leather laminated with polyurethane foam and brushed polyester tricot. These unique pads provide a soft interface between soft tissue and the orthosis. D-loops are available for patients with limited use of their hands to make the application of the device easier. Straps are attached to the suspension sleeves, eliminating the confusion of which strap goes where. After the initial fitting, the wearer closes or opens one side of the front straps for simple application and removal.
Recommended Range Of Applications: Genu recurvatum, Unstable knee caused by laxity of the ligaments, Mild valgus instability, Mild varus instability, Neurologic function impairment (post C.V.A.)
Contraindications: Not suitable for sports activities

Comfortable Hyperextension Control
Longer uprights (when compared to the Swedish Knee Cage) reduce
the amount of pressure required on the femur and tibia to control
hyperextension, making the orthosis better tolerated by the patient.
Effortless Motion Joint
Dual-axis joints allow each of the four uprights to move independently
of each other from extension to flexion, enabling the orthosis to follow
the natural movement of the leg and prevent downward migration.
Low Profile
Low profile hinges with slim uprights that are easily shaped to fit
the contours of the leg to create an orthosis that becomes virtually
unnoticeable under clothing.
Comfortable Frame Suspension System and Soft Tissue Interface:
Made of artificial leather laminated with foam and soft velour, these
unique pads provide a soft interface between soft tissue and the orthosis.
Easy to Don and Doff:
Straps are attached to the comfort pads, eliminating the confusion of which
strap goes where. After the initial fitting, the wearer just closes or opens one
side only of the front straps for simple application and removal.
