Ottobock PATELLA PRO 8320N

LEFT/RIGHT=XS=S=M=L=XL=XXL

Patellar re-alignment brace, dynamically guides the Patella in all relevant Knee flexion angles

Dynamic Patellar tracking

The Patella Pro 8320N is a new solution for anterior Knee pain.   Thanks to its innovative dynamic realignment technology, the Patella Pro 8320N medialises the Patella in the relevant flexion range.   It is unique in providing functional guidance for the Patella for normal, everyday activities.   The Patella Pro 8320N can be used conservatively as well as in the post operative phase.

Often, pain is caused by problems associated with Patellar tracking.   The goal is to reposition the Patella so it moves correctly.   The risk of maltracking is particularly high at lower flexion angles of 10–30°, when the Patella is not tracked firmly in the Patellofemoral groove.   This is exactly where the Patella Pro 8320N comes in and where it guides the Patella.   The frequently inflamed Soft Tissue is thereby relieved and Knee pain can be alleviated as the joint structures are functionally relieved.   Users especially appreciate that this Knee Orthosis is suitable for everyday use.

Indications

• Patellofemoral pain syndrome
