Malleo TriStep

Art. no. 50S8 | Phase-adapted Ankle Orthosis Torn ligaments

• Unique phase adapted fitting concept

8

Foot/Ankle

The Malleo TriStep facilitates systematic rehabilitation of the capsule-ligament system of the ankle with a three-phase fitting concept. In conjunction with increasing patient mobility, the stabilizing function of the Malleo TriStep can be systematically adapted in each therapy phase. Phase adaptation of the Malleo TriStep supports the patient as he or she regains muscle coordination, and provides adequate support for the ligamentous apparatus of the ankle in each therapy phase.

• Tested Institute for Biomechanics and Orthopaedics/Cologne Biomechanical efficiency and effectiveness

Patella Pro

Art. no. 8320 | Patella Re-alignment Orthosis Patellofemoral pain syndrome

• Precise patellar tracking in extension and flexion

24 Knee

The solution for anterior knee pain Anterior knee pain is often caused by problems with patella tracking. Patella Pro relieves pain with its dynamic re-alignment mechanism. The orthosis tracks the patella precisely, especially at smaller knee flexion angles of 10° to 30°, when the patella is not held firmly in its physiological groove. The frequently inflamed soft tissue is relieved and pain is alleviated by the functional relief of joint structures.

Flexion 10° –  30°

Flexion > 30°

High risk of patella maltracking

Lower risk of patella maltracking

Precise patella tracking of the patella with Patella Pro

Continued optimal tracking without overcorrection

Indications • Patellofemoral malalignment • Patellofemoral pain syndrome • Retropatellar osteoarthritis • Patellar chondropathy/chondromalacia • After patella dislocations and subluxations • After patellar tendon injury • Anterior knee pain after knee surgery, (e.g. total knee replacement, lateral release surgery)
