Bledsoe Thruster RLF Arthritis Knee Brace

$899.99 $644.99

The Bledsoe Thruster RLF Knee Brace is clinically proven to provide effective pain relief. The unique design of this single-upright OA brace creates relief by pulling the straps to open the joint space vs. pushing against the opposite side of the knee. The Thruster knee brace hinge is designed to provide up to 36 degrees of brace angulation compared to a typical unloader design that allows between 3-10 degrees of varus/valgus thrust capability. This allows the brace to unload knee joints that have excessive tissue. The adjustment dial easily adjusts the amount of varus/valgus unloading to the knee, and is capable of unloading knee joints for people with excessive soft tissue. Ideal for people with unicompartmental OA and meniscal instability injuries.

 

Bledsoe Thruster RLF Knee Brace Features:

  • Hinge is on the involved side of the knee, pulling vs. pushing to relieve pain
  • Provides up to 36 degrees of correction
  • Recommended for people with excessive soft tissue
  • Unloads in a 4-point load system
  • New strap saddle maximizes circumferential support by preventing strap indentation into the soft tissue. This enhances force and keeps the leg coupled to the hinge
  • Easy adjustment dial (pictured above) for pain relief. Just push in and turn the dial with the leg in flexion for the desired amount of relief
  • Easy ski buckle closure system with over-center buckles - simply snap it in and go
  • Available in XS through XXXL sizes - See SIze & Fit tab for sizing chart and measurement/fit help
  • Right and left knee specific
  • Choose Medial to relieve pain on the inside aspect of the knee (medial compartment) and Lateral:  for relieving pain on the outside aspect of the knee (lateral compartment)
  • Also available in two versions: Standard or Athletic calf (for a leg that is contoured with a smaller calf circumference. Be sure to see our sizing chart tab above for specifics
  • Color: Black
