Bauerfeind. Motion is life.

Indications

Instabilities after rupturing the anterior and/or posterior cruciate ligament (ACL/PCL)
After ligament surgery/syndesmoplasty

Complex instabilities (traumatic, degenerative)
To restrict the range of movement of the knee (for example, after collateral ligament injuries, meniscal suturing or meniscal implantation)

SecuTec Genu is extremely light.
The thin aluminum frame is anatomically contoured, flat and fits closely to the body.
The special frame construction provides a simple and effortless leg-geometric fit with respect to the joint plane.
The specially processed aluminum alloy makes the frame extremely light, stable and formable.
The orthosis can be applied from the front of the leg.
The physiological hinges can be easily adjusted for various therapeutic needs while on the leg. With 4 point security, the bi-axial hinge is highly stable.
Protected from dirt and wear, the hinges have a damped 0 degree stop.

The breathable and non-irritating padding has a slip-resistant coating and is easily removed and re-applied for cleaning.
To fit the individual knee width (in swelling situations) there are condylar pads of varying thicknesses.
Flexibly positioned condyle pads avoid skin irritations.
The straps can be fastened in 2 positions for ease of application and are pivoting on the side so that the strap follows the geometry of the leg.
The lower, distal strap near the joint is highly adjustable so that the strap position fits the calf.
To treat the PCL, the proximal strap near the joint can be shifted ventrally. To treat a complex instability, an additional strap can be used.
Flexion and extension can be limited independently from each other.
(Flexion: 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°, 120°)
(Extension: 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°)

The knee orthosis is based on the proven 4-Point-Principle.
The torsionally stiff frame construction counteracts the anterior/posterior drawer effect and stabilizes the knee against varus/valgus forces.

Possible constraining forces exerted by the orthosis on the knee are minimized through adaptation of the anatomically contoured frame to the duo-centric hinges.
