Osteoarthritis of the knee is the gradual breakdown of cartilage within the knee joint which is the cushioning material connected to the bone which helps to absorb impact etc. Without cartilage there is bone on bone contact which creates friction during movement resulting in pain when in motion. Due to the nature of the knee joint the cartilage will continue to degeneration and there will be more and more bone on bone contact as a result, meaning the condition will gradually progress and mobility will be affected further. 5 million adults have sought help for knee osteoarthritis in the UK over the last 7 years, with this figure expected to increase to 8.3 million by 2035 which is why early diagnosis and treatment is essential in managing the condition.
It features Össur's unique, patented 3-point Leverage System, which combines a single hinge with dual Dynamic Force System (DFS) straps to provide unloading of the knee joint. Clinical studies demonstrate that this system may relieve osteoarthritis knee pain and improve function and quality of life while being worn.
Color-coded Quick Fit buckles make donning and doffing simple, while flexible shells and breathable liners are designed to improve comfort and reduce migration, thus helping to ensure compliance.
Recommended for moderate to severe unicompartmental knee osteoarthritis, degenerative meniscal tears, and other knee conditions that may benefit from unicompartmental unloading.
Unloader One can be worn for your daily activities. Clinically proven to reduce the pain associated with unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee, this brace is designed for average to high-impact activities, indoors as well as outdoors. It can also help reduce your reliance on pain medication and avoid negative side-effects.
