Ankle support AM-OSS-05/CCA

Ankle strain and sprain are common injuries. It can cause giving up sport activities and can require the surgery treatment.

Ankle strain and sprain are common injuries that can interfere with everything from sports activities to activities of daily living. They can require the surgical treatment.

The incidence of ankle sprains in Poland is 360 000/ year. Ankle sprain is the most commonly diagnosed condition by orthopedic surgeons. Ankle sprains are due to twisting and stretching of ligaments beyond their anatomical range that results in soft tissue injury and damage to the joint capsule. Approximately 95% are caused by excessive ankle inversion and only 5% with ankle eversion.

Twisted ankles don’t always require a visit to the orthopaedist. It depends on ankle the degree of sprain. First degree sprains can be treated by rest, cold therapy (ice), compression, elevation and stabilization with an ace bandage or support. Second degree sprains require an orthopaedist’s treatment and commonly a prescription for a professional ankle brace. You should understand that professional medical ankle braces are more efficient than a simple cast.

Reh4Mat has the Ankle brace to fit the medical requirement!

Product description

AM-OSS-05/CCA brace by Reh4Mat is one of the most advanced braces we offer.

The outside of the device is made of spatial fabric ActiveSpace™ and AeroSpace II™. Bands are made of AirRubber III™ material.

The lacing, utilizing BOA® Fit System, helps you fit your brace to every ankle shape.

Two lateral anatomic-shaped splints stabilize the joint effectively. The low profile design allows our ankle brace to be used in all athletic shoes.

Our ankle brace’s advantage is universal side – it is suitable for right and left leg.

The AM-OSS-05/CCA ankle brace with lateral support, laced construction and spiral dynamic straps provide excellent ankle stabilization.

Ankle brace AM-OSS-05/CCA allows to maintain the foot in inversion or eversion. Depending on natural foot position, we can correct and maintain the foot in the required position. This solution is possible by adjustment of tension of two elastic straps.

To correct the inversion there is necessary to re-adjust the medial strap to achieve the desired tension. To maintain the foot in the eversion, there is necessary to re-adjist the lateral strap. When you adjust the straps in standard tension, you will maintain the foot in the neutral position.

Purpose of use

ankle strains or sprains
ankle dislocation
as an protection after cast immobilization (after fractures, raptures, sprains, strains)

MATERIALS

ActiveSpace™

ActiveSpace™ is a spacer, polyamide 3D lamination with high skin ventilation. It is very lightweight, consisted of 2 layers. Between them, we use polyamide braids. ActiveSpace™ is not elastic what improves stabilization. Inside the lamination, between 2 layers, the air flows freely, maintaining minimal water and moisture absorption. Waterproof material.

AeroSpace II™

AeroSpace II™ is an innovative new generation raw material. It is a distance elastic 3D knitted fabric consisting of two layers of facings and an interlacing that creates the appropriate thickness of the raw material and has relieving properties. The knitwear is made of the highest quality polyester yarn - guaranteeing high mechanical strength and spandex ensuring its proper flexibility. AeroSpace II™ has an external self-gripping layer what makes it easy to adjust each product to individual patient’s needs. This material is characterized by a very low weight, high flexibility and a very large openwork structure, allowing for very easy drainage of sweat from the body and bringing fresh air to the skin. Products made of this raw material are neutral to the secured joint, do not heat or cool it, but ensure its proper compression and fit and reduce muscle vibrations generated during physical exertion. Its thickness and 3D structure perfectly relieves the orthopedic splints, stays or other elements mounted on the product and guarantees velvety softness to the touch.

AirRubber III™

AirRubber III™ has unidirectional elasticity. It can be stretched, increasing the length, not width, what improves compression. Between the braids air flows freely and skin can breathe. In addition in high compression, these rubber braids provide a gentle massage for skin. Our orthopedic rubber is very friendly for skin.
