Gripper ROM Hinged Knee Brace 12" ROM
Gripper ROM Hinged Knee Brace 12" ROM
The Gripper ROM Hinged knee brace provides medial and lateral stability and resists distal migration due to an internal SkinLoc™ pad that works in concert with the outer closure strap to grip the proximal end of the calf muscle. Hinge pockets are reinforced in the center and at either end with high tenacity nylon material to enhance durability. Wraparound anterior closure allows for ease of application and an optimum fit. The Gripper ROM knee support contains a ROM hinge with flexion and extension stops at 0, 15, 30, 60 and 90 degrees and is available in a 12” or 16” length. Each length is also available in two different base materials: 3/16” Neoprene or CoolFlex™. The neoprene version provides warmth and superior compression. The CoolFlex version is breathable and hypoallergenic.
Indications include:
- meniscal injuries
- MCL or LCL injuries or sprains
- medial or lateral knee instabilities
Control & Adjustability
Easy access polycentric Range-of-Motion hinges allows for quick positioning of flexion and extension stops at 0°, 15°, 30°, 60°, and 90°. ROM hinges have an additional padded cover to allow for athletic participation. Inelastic nylon straps work in concert with ROM hinges to control flexion and extension and provide medial and lateral stability.
Compliance & Migration
Internal SkinLoc™ pad works in concert with the outer closure strap to grip the proximal end of the calf muscle and inhibit the brace from migrating distally, thereby greatly enhancing patient compliance.
Durability & Comfort
ROM hinge pockets are reinforced on the inside with ballistic nylon material at wear points to prevent hinges from wearing through the pocket. Unique condylar pad design enhances comfort. Wraparound anterior closure allows for ease of application and an optimum fit.
