FAQs

How do I clean and maintain the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis? + –

To clean the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis, remove the uprights and fasten all hook-and-loop attachments. Hand or machine wash the soft cover on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, and air dry the cover. Clean the hinges with mild detergent or alcohol, rinse with water, and dry with a soft cloth.

How do I properly fit the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis? + –

Begin by setting the hinges to the desired angle, either for static support or progressive extension therapy. Place the orthosis with the hinge aligned to the midline of your knee. Secure the thigh and calf cuffs, then adjust the kneecap straps to form an "X" over the patella. Ensure all straps are snug but not overly tight to prevent pressure points.

What is the difference between an orthosis and a brace? + –

An orthosis is a medical device designed to correct or support musculoskeletal abnormalities, often tailored for therapeutic needs. A brace, on the other hand, typically provides general support for injuries or instability. The SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis combines these functions by providing both therapeutic positioning and progressive extension.

Does the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis immobilize the knee? + –

The SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis is not a traditional immobilizer. While it holds the knee in a controlled position for therapeutic purposes, its hinges can be adjusted to allow progressive extension and gradual range of motion improvements.

How long can I wear the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis each day? + –

Initially, wear the orthosis for one hour and gradually increase usage by 30 minutes daily until reaching the recommended 3-6 hours per session. Remove the orthosis for at least two hours after 6 hours of wear to allow skin recovery and to check for redness or pressure marks.

Is the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis suitable for all types of knee contractures? + –

The SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis is ideal for mild to moderate flexion contractures and non-fixed adaptive tissue shortening. It is not recommended for severely spastic or ankylosed joints.

Can I use the SoftPro Static Knee Orthosis after surgery? + –

Yes, this orthosis is highly effective for post-surgical recovery. It helps prevent stiffness, maintain joint positioning, and gradually improve range of motion during rehabilitation.
