Knee orthoses

Osteoarthritis or unloading knee orthoses 

This type of orthosis is designed to relieve pressure on the arthritic knee compartment.

By improving the biomechanics of the joint affected by osteoarthritis, the orthosis realigns knee pressure and thus provides pain relief of the affected compartment. Knee function is normalized and the need for knee replacement surgery can be delayed.

Offered exclusively at Médicus, the EVOKE^TM orthosis is the first knee orthosis for osteoarthritis to reproduce the natural movement of the knee. It is 50% lighter than all other orthoses designed for osteoarthritis.

Knee immobilizers

Knee immobilizers are designed to help patients recovering from knee surgery, or those suffering from a knee injury or instability. They immobilize the knee by restricting the articular range of the knee. This limitation is adjustable as the rehabilitation progresses.

A knee immobilizer is recommended in the following cases:

• Postoperative and acute knee injuries
• Immobilization or restriction of knee movement
