How to use
The first positioning must be performed by a qualified specialist. In addition to the measurement, a trial is necessary for a correct adaptation and a good understanding of the positioning of the orthosis. The internal label must be on the upper part of the leg. We recommend the following procedure for wearing the orthosis:
• Open the knee brace fully and position the rear window at the level of the popliteal fossa.
• Close the upper and lower ends by centering the C-shaped patellar pads around the kneecap.
• Fasten the front straps to achieve a stable but comfortable positioning.
• Finish the application by adjusting the closure of the rear straps; the splints must be parallel and centered on the axis of the knee.
Components
Polyamide 81%, elastane 19%.
