  • Publication number: 20140221891
    Abstract: A knee brace for easing the symptoms of osteoarthritis is disclosed in which force straps provide a varying unloading force to the knee as the joint is flexed and straightened. The force straps are arranged to alter the degree of angulation between frames of the brace that span the joint, such that abstracting force is applied above and below the joint rather than to the joint itself. A dual hinge brace incorporating a push-pull hinge that alters the degree of angulation between the frames of a knee brace is also described.
