An orthopedic brace designed to immobilize the knee by preventing
flexion/extension and limiting medial/lateral movement. The brace
includes a main support structure embodied in a unitary, rigid stay
member with slidable, semi-rigid cuffs at one or both ends to provide
length adjustability. The stay member has no popliteal articulation in
order to immobilize the knee joint, and further provides attachment for a
Velcro strapping system for easy application to the posterior of the leg.
A breathable foam softgood insulates the leg and knee from the main
support structure and strapping system yet is completely detachable from
the brace so it can be trimmed to any desired length or width, and washed
as necessary.
