JUMPER KNNE STRAP WITH SILICONE INSERT

Description

„Jumper’s knee” – patellar tendinopathy

Some of the sports are connected with jumping (e.g. basketball, volleyball, long jump or triple jump). “Jumper’s knee”, also known as patellar tendonitis or patellar tendinopathy, is an inflammation or injury of the patellar tendon, the cord-like tissue that joins the patella (kneecap) to the tibia (shin bone). Jumper’s knee is an overuse injury, when repeated movements cause tissue damage or irritation in shin bone area. The patients feel pain in the anterior knee, especially while jumping. The condition doesn’t occur not only in jumping but everybody can suffer from this in every sport activity.

Treatment of the patellar tendonitis bases on off-loading of the patella tendon and exercises. What’s more, this non-operative treatment has better results than surgery1.

In order to this, we created our patella strap AS-P/RZ with silicone insert for dampening vibration.

Product description

Jumper knee strap AS-P/RZ was created under the rule called MiniMax (minimum device, maximum effect). It’s anatomic-shaped brace with silicone insert in universal size. The brace stabilizes and off-loads the patella tendon, providing compression. It allows to reduce pain and patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS).

Silicone insert in AS-P/RZ kneecap brace provides dampening therapeutic vibration with your every step and keep the strap in place.

Our AS-P/RZ strap supports the kneecap and patellar tendon, what limits the stress of the quadriceps on the shin bone and reduces pain. It allows to prevent against the chondromalacia patellae (CMP).

Our jumper knee strap is made of skin-friendly material ActivePren™. It’s universal size and fits for both legs.

Technology

MATERIALS

ActivePren™

ActivePren™ is an active three-layer material consisting of two elastic jersey cover fabrics and a core made of neoprene foam. This material is characterized by softness and high flexibility. A very important advantage of this material is the fact that it is not a knitted product, it does not have thick fibers, so that the weaves of the material do not imprint on the patient's skin and do not cause abrasionsin places of high compression. Products made of ActivePren are the strongest and most effective stabilizing orthoses available on the market.
