KNAPP™ HINGED KNEE Brace by Hely & Weber
|
|
A Multi-Functional Hinged Knee Orthosis was the quest set upon by Dr. Thomas Knapp and the designers at Hely & Weber Sports Medicine. Dr. Knapp realized that in these ever challenging reimbursement times, a brace that could solve more than one bracing need would be a very helpful tool in the practitioners armamentarium. Pre-operative/Post-operative and Mild to Moderate Functional Bracing became our goal. This brace was designed to meet the ever challenging needs of pre and post-op care for MCL/LCL and meniscal repairs, and might also be considered in it's longer lengths as an adjunct to patella fracture and mild/moderate ACL/PCL strains and sprains. Full hinge covers allow for sport participation. |
