Product description
Unloader One X improves mobility by providing pain relief from knee osteoarthritis (OA), degenerative meniscal tears, and other unicompartmental knee conditions that may benefit from unloading. It features Össur's unique, proprietary, and clinically proven 3-point Leverage System that generates unicompartimental unloading of the knee joint. Available in custom and OTS versions to help you fit your patient's different leg anatomies.
 
Key features
Relieves Pain - 3 Point Leverage System with Dynamic Force System™ straps, rigid shells, and a single upright hinge biomechanically unloads the affected knee compartment.
Control - Tool-free SmartDosing® dials enable the patient to fine-tune the strap tension to control pain.
Tool-Free - Tool-free polycentric hinge with optional ROM stops for range-of-motion restriction.
Comfortable - Skin-friendly liners feel great against the skin and reduce pressure points. Antimigration strap technology design captures the widest part of the calf to reduce brace migration.
Easy-to-Use - Alignment guide on hinge facilitates correct positioning of the brace on the leg and color-coded touch points aid in easy donning and doffing.
Easy-to-Wear - Slender frame with soft edges easily contours to individual anatomies and remains discreet whether worn under or over clothing.
Easy Care - Entire brace is machine washable (washbag included).
