DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite Knee Support Brace Instruction Manual

Produktua amaituview

The DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite Knee Brace is an extremely comfortable patella (kneecap) support brace for mild to moderate patellar dislocations. This low-profile patella support brace is designed with pull straps above and below the patella. This puts a "true" and consistent pull on the kneecap during flexion and extension, which realigns the patella. By properly aligning the kneecap you reduce the pain that comes with patellofemoral problems like dislocating your kneecap. The DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite is made of Breath-O-Prene, which is an anti-microbial wicking fabric that is hypoallergenic, breathable, and lightweight. It provides a soft tacky connection with the patella ensuring maximum support, while the independent anchors prevent the brace from rotating. Includes removable plastic hinges, to provide additional medial/lateral stability. The DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite knee brace is ideal for runners, recreational athletes, or individuals who are looking for extra patella support during their daily activities.

Konfigurazioa eta aplikazioa

Proper application of your DonJoy Tru-Pull Lite Knee Support Brace is crucial for optimal support and comfort. Follow these steps for correct fitting.

Measuring for Your Brace

To ensure the correct size, measure your leg at three points: mid-knee, 6 inches above the knee (thigh), and 6 inches below the knee (calf). Refer to the sizing chart below.

Applying the Brace

The Tru-Pull Lite brace features a sleeve design with adjustable straps.

1. Slide the brace onto your leg, ensuring the patella opening is centered over your kneecap.
2. Secure the adjustable straps, first the lower strap, then the upper strap, to achieve a snug but comfortable fit. The straps should provide firm compression without restricting circulation.
3. The plastic hinges on the sides should align with the natural bend of your knee, offering medial/lateral stability.

Patellar Tracking

Stability and Comfort

The removable plastic hinges offer additional medial/lateral stability, while the Breath-O-Prene material ensures breathability and comfort, even during extended wear. The independent anchors prevent the brace from rotating.
