Key Features of a Hinged Knee Orthosis:
- Adjustable Range of Motion (ROM):
- Allows controlled flexion and extension of the knee to aid in gradual recovery.
- Often has dial locks or stops to set specific degrees of motion restriction.
- Stabilization and Support:
- Reinforces the knee joint, preventing excessive lateral movement.
- Reduces strain on injured ligaments or post-operative structures.
- Hinged Mechanism:
- Mimics natural knee movement while preventing hyperextension.
- Can be single-axis or polycentric hinges for improved biomechanics.
- Comfortable and Adjustable Fit:
- Features adjustable straps, cushioned liners, and breathable materials.
- Designed for long-term wear without discomfort.
Common Uses of Hinged Knee Orthoses:
- Post-surgical recovery (e.g., ACL reconstruction, meniscus repair).
- Ligament injuries (ACL, MCL, PCL, LCL sprains or tears).
- Osteoarthritis relief (offloading knee pressure).
- Sports injury prevention (especially in high-impact sports).
- Patellar stabilization (for conditions like patellar subluxation).
