The United Ortho 3-Panel Knee Immobilizer has a three-piece design that ensures a precise fit while maximizing comfort and completely immobilizing the knee. It is used to aid patients who desire post-operation knee support and treats other individuals with knee-related injuries such as collateral ligament sprains and patella tendon repairs.
The construction of the knee immobilizer is split into three panels working in harmony to provide distributed compression and support throughout the device. These panels are made from ridged and lightweight materials for ideal cushioning while lightweight ridged posterior stay and an adjustable medial (or lateral) stay compromise the devices stability support. Together these create the removable panels that create the precise fit alongside the guarantee for maximum comfort and immobilized knee.
The best features of this device are certainly the fully removable side panels and the adjustable straps. Each device has fully removable side panels that are adjusted for individual comfort and fit. Devices are also equipped with six hook and loop straps for secure immobilization. These features work together to ensure the device can mold itself onto a leg for a secure fit while providing evenly distributed compression and comfort throughout the device. The construction also features an open knee which promotes airflow through the device and improves all-round comfort.
A single 3-panel Knee Immobilizer works perfectly on either leg, but the length you desire depends on your preference when the device is centered on the kneecap. Each device fits a universal circumference of up to 29 inches.
