Soft orthoses for knee osteoarthritis
medi Smartfit OA is an orthosis designed to relieve pressure on and guide the knee. Relieving pressure on the knee joint helps to reduce pain and promotes patient mobility.
medi Smartfit OA is used for all indications requiring unicompartimental relief by 3 point principle and additional physiological guidance and if necessary limitations of range of motion such as:
•Unilateral osteoarthritis
• Cartilage surgery or chondroplasty
• Meniscus intervention
In addition, it enables physiological guidance and restriction of joint movement. The limitation options of the medi Smartfit OA:
• Extension: –5°, 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°
• Flexion: 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 75°, 90°, 120°
The medi Smartfit OA is also impressively easy to use: thanks to its practical twist mechanism, the advanced BOA Fit System enables effortless and millimetre-precise adjustment in both directions.
Comfortable knee orthosis for osteoarthritis: medi Smartfit OA promotes mobility in everyday life
The innovative, lightweight and seamless knit of the medi Smartfit OA is breathable. In addition, Tec-Knit has a positive effect on swelling. The material can also improve proprioception, which in turn promotes the body's own guidance and stabilisation of the knee joint.
The extra-thin functional zones in the popliteal fossa and kneecap fit perfectly and offer a high level of wearing comfort. The strategically placed flexible stretch ribs on the thigh contribute to an optimal fit – they can be used as a guide when choosing the size. The medi Smartfit OA is available in six sizes and two versions:
- left varus / right valgus
- left valgus / right varus
Thanks to its slim design and integrated wire guide, the medi Smartfit OA is not bulky, so it can be worn comfortably under clothing. This makes the orthosis perfect for everyday use.
