SecuTec® Genu

Indications:

• Instabilities after rupturing the anterior and/or posterior cruciate ligament (ACL/PCL)
• After ligament surgery/syndesmoplasty
• Complex instabilities (traumatic, degenerative)
• To restrict the range of movement of the knee (for example, after collateral ligament injuries, meniscal suturing or meniscal implantation)

A torn ligament, collateral ligament injury or operation on the meniscus can mean that the knee joint needs to be stabilized from outside for a period of time. SecuTec® Genu is a lightweight but sturdy knee orthosis, designed to fit the anatomy of the leg. It is easy to put on and take off, fits perfectly and is very comfortable to wear.

• Strong stabilization of the knee
• Extremely lightweight and flat
• High level of wearing comfort

With the SecuTec Genu, being sturdy and being lightweight are not mutually exclusive. This is made possible by a special, very strong light metal alloy. Breathable, non-slip pads ensure that the orthosis sits securely and comfortably on the leg.

SofTec® Genu

Indications:

• Isolated rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament up to and including the "unhappy triad": Conservative treatment, Pre-operative and postoperative management, Long-term rehabilitation – sports therapy, Chronic insufficiency
• Conservative functional treatment of collateral ligament injuries
• Treatment of "unstable knee joint": Severe osteoarthritis of the knee, Rheumatoid arthritis – progressive rheumatoid arthritis, Endoprosthesis – secondary rehabilitation, Post-traumatic
• Restricting the knee’s range of movement (e.g. after meniscal suturing or meniscal implantation)

SofTec® Genu is a multifunctional orthosis for stabilization of the knee. It is used, for example,in cases of torn ligaments, collateral ligament injury or arthritis. Its construction combines: stability and control provided by fixed joint splints, healing massage provided by a pad on the kneecap and maximum wearing comfort thanks to the anatomically shaped, breathable SofTec® vector-oriented knitted fabric.

• Helps to relieve pain
• Massages with every movement
• "Intelligent" joint splints stabilize the knee

If your knee has been injured or just been operated on, it needs to be protected from excess strain. SofTec® Genu gives you a great feeling of stability, without restricting your mobility. On the contrary: every movement also activates the massaging nodules on the built-in knee pad. These massage the surrounding tissue and so speed up the healing process.
