Product descriptionAS-KX-04 is a short knee orthosis designed for the conservative treatment of lateral patellar dislocation and patellofemoral joint disorders. The orthosis combines a perforated, non-elastic frontal panel and an openwork elastic posterior panel to provide targeted compression and breathability. Lateral patellar support is provided by a soft lateral pelotte and an adjustable silicone patella pelotte; two independent circumferential straps secure the orthosis above and below the knee. Two spiral lateral stays deliver precise stabilization during movement.
Purpose of use- Lateral patellar dislocation (traumatic or congenital)
- Mild to moderate knee pain syndromes
- Patellar maltracking

Technology / Materials- ActivePren™ — three-layer active material (elastic jersey covers + neoprene foam core). Soft, flexible, non-knitted; effective for stabilizing orthoses.
- AirDistance III™ — breathable three-layer lamination: external self-gripping polyamide, comfort foam, internal 3D polyamide fabric. High air permeability, low moisture absorption, water resistant.
- ProSix™ — 3D elastic openwork fabric that conforms in multiple directions; external 3D layer for stabilization, duothermic spacer foam for ventilation and compression, breathable cotton skin-contact layer; Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified.
- Spiral boning — thin coiled wire providing spring-like support, corrosion protected, washable in place, maintains shape memory.
- Patella silicone support — anatomical silicone pads in various shapes/hardnesses to stabilize or unload the patella.
- Patella stabilizers — relief foam stabilizers attached inside the orthosis with hook-and-loop elements.
