What is Dynamic OA Bracing?
Dynamic OA braces apply a corrective force only when the symptoms of OA are present when the leg is fully extended. No pressure is applied when the leg is bent, for example, while sitting or driving a car. Dynamic braces are comfortable to wear for extended periods of time.
How do Dynamic OA braces work?
Standard OA braces use corrective forces to align the knee joint. This can reduce the discomfort that is caused by OA, however, the symptoms of OA only occur while weight bearing when the leg is in extension.
In a dynamic brace a corrective force is only applied in the last 30 degrees of extension when the most relief is needed. That force is removed as the knee moves into exion and symptoms are no longer present.
DUO Knee Brace
A unique design, our DUO (Dynamic Unloading Osteoarthritis) brace is the only dual- upright dynamic OA brace on the market. During extension, the hinge on the a ected compartment becomes longer while the opposite hinge becomes shorter. This increases the force to unload the a ected compartment and relieve pain: when the patient is bearing weight, the brace is actively unloading. DUO reduces force when sitting, making it ideal for patients who need to wear a brace for daily activities.
