CROSS™ is a semi-rigid knee orthosis intended to be used when knee hyperextension in the knee joint is present. CROSS™ was developed
and designed to function together with an Allard AFO (Ankle-foot-orthosis). No straps or buckles that intervene with the composite
orthosis. The cross on the back stabilizes knee hyperextension.
The unique design makes it easy to put on and take off using only one
hand. The orthosis has an ultra-smooth low friction liner with no visible seams that prevents skin irritation. The soft inside helps
the orthosis to glide easily over the foot and up over the knee. To prevent migration the orthosis has a strategically placed silicone
band.
The reinforcement in the upper wide cuff keeps the orthosis open so the foot and leg slide easily into the brace. This will help
users with limited function put on the orthosis with only one hand. The “donning aid” further assists users with limited balance to
guide the orthosis over the foot and pull it up on the leg.
CROSS™ has adjustable ROM stops. Flexion: 45°, 60°, 75°, 90° degrees and
Extension: 0°, 10°, 20°, 30°, 40° degrees.
CROSS™ is intended for mild to moderate
knee hyperextension due to neuromuscular diseases or other injuries. The brace can also be used together with Allard AFOs when knee
hyperextension is present together with foot drop.
