Functional Knee Orthosis for Gonarthrosis - Gonartec - Varus/Valgus

Lightweight and with an ergonomic design, it adjusts to the morphology of the limb and adapts to changes in the anatomical shape during activities.

The rigid structures of the thigh and leg are connected by a joint that allows flexion-extension regulation.

The contour of the rigid parts is made of lower density plastic, improving user comfort.

The joint is supplied with a pre-installed extension locking wedge at 0º (prevents hyperextension) and a key that allows the exchange of wedges to control flexion-extension.

The padded fabric protections are breathable and can be removed for washing.

In the connection between the joint and the thigh piece there is a second joint that allows an axial varus or valgus adjustment, improving the efficiency of load distribution over the knee.

It has a quick, safe and easy-to-use closing system that allows comfortable placement and removal of the orthosis.

Effects:

• Internal or external condylar pressure, realigning the thigh/leg axial deviation.
• Medial or lateral mechanical unloading of the knee.
• Stabilization and restriction of joint range of motion.
• Pain relief.

Indications:

• Mild or moderate uni-compartmental knee osteoarthritis (medial or lateral).
• Genu-Valgus or Varus associated with osteoarthritis.
• Medial or lateral meniscal injury.

Size: Universal
