Otto Bock Genu Direxa Stable Long 8359-7 Hinged Knee Brace (Left)

Description:

The Otto Bock Genu Direxa Stable Long 8359-7 hinged knee brace (left leg) provides superior support and stability for various knee conditions. This lightweight yet robust brace features a unique design incorporating two adjustable polycentric hinges and an extended length with eight securing straps. The non-removable design (model 8359-7) ensures consistent support.

Material:

Constructed from innovative, three-layer TriTech membrane material, this brace boasts a mere 2.3 mm thickness. This advanced material actively wicks away moisture, promotes optimal breathability, offers excellent anti-slip properties, and exhibits high durability. Easy to care for – it’s quick-drying and machine washable on a delicate cycle.

This knee brace is indicated for the following conditions (consult your physician before use):

• Knee pain with significant or combined ligamentous instability and/or a feeling of instability requiring temporary or permanent limitation of flexion and/or extension.

• Significant and/or combined ligamentous instability due to degenerative conditions (severe gonarthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis).
• Conservative treatment of lateral collateral ligament injuries.
