Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing a premium medical product manufactured by BORT
GmbH. With the Bort
StabiloGen
Knee Support, your spe-
®
cialist medical provider has supplied you with a product that meets the
highest medical, functional and quality standards.
All of the products in the BORT
Support series feature Timbrelle
antibacterial protection that meets the highest hygienic standards.
The Bort
StabiloGen
Knee Support supports the damaged
®
tissue structures. The support's compressive action supports the postural
function of the ligaments thus relieving the joint. At the same time, the
support helps prevent incorrect movement.
On the move, the compressive knitting and the silicone pads combine to
deliver a massage effect, which reduces the tendency for swelling, helps
reduce existing swellings and thus accelerates the healing process. The
pad also ensures that the patella is supported during normal movement.
InDIcatIonS
Gonarthrosis, articular effusion, swelling, arthritis, post-operative irrita-
tions, ligament instability.
