2.3.2. Attach the brace to the leg
The patient bends the leg to an angle of about 30° to 45°. Now attach the brace
to the patient’s leg from in front.
Ensure that the pivots of the brace hinges match the physiological pivots of the
knee.
It is possible to adjust the thigh rods to the shape of the patient’s leg by using an
orthopaedic bending iron.
Ensure that the hinges are as parallel to one another as possible to
ensure wear-free function of the brace.
The calf element was designed without holes on purpose, in order to prevent
oedemas.
