d
minimising the existing risks. Tests have been in accordance with European Regulation UNE-EN ISO 22523 on
Prostheses and Orthoses.
INDICATIONS
⋅ Arthrosis of the tibio-femoral compartments, arthrotic valgus and varus, meniscal injuries, gonarthrosis.
⋅ Function: When inflating the cushion, increase the medial or lateral compression for knee valgus or varus,
in order to obtain an opening in the other tibio-femoral compartment, minimising condylar loads on the
superior extremity of the tibia. The polycentric articulation, along with the inflatable cushion will contribute
to an improved alignment.
⋅ Open the tibio-femoral compartment in meniscal injuries.
FITTING INSTRUCTIONS
For best therapeutic results considering different pathologies and to extend the useful life of the product, it is
essential to choose the correct size for each patient or user. Excessive compression may be intolerable; adjusting
the compression to be firm yet comfortable is recommended.
®
If the product must be adapted, any such adjustments must be done by an orthopaedic specialist or healthcare
professional legally certified to do so who must make sure the end user or person responsible for fitting the
product properly understands how it works and should be used.
When fitting the product, you must adhere to the following instructions:
1-Open the knee brace fully, both the femur and tibia straps, as well as the velcro closures at the front of the
thigh and the back of the calf.
2-Introduce the foot into the knee support, sliding it upwards until the infrapatellar donut matches the lower
edge of the kneecap.
3-Adjust calf and femur closures.
4-Adjust the straps for knee varus or valgus
5-Next adjust thigh and calf straps.
6-Proceed to inflate the internal air cushion to desired compression.
Note:
The polycentric atriculation shells must be adjusted to the morphology of the patient, keeping in mind whether
it is to be used to correct knee varus or valgus, or if it is to be fitted on the medial or external portion of the knee.
Keep in mind:
Right-handed version: right knee varus or left knee valgus.
Left-handed version: left knee varus or right knee valgus.
