Product Description

Unloader One X improves mobility by providing pain relief from knee osteoarthritis and degenerative meniscal tears.

It features Össur’s unique patented and clinically proven 3-point Leverage System that generates unicompartimental unloading of the knee joint.

Key Features

  • 3-Point Leverage System consisting of two Dynamic Force System (DFS) Straps, rigid shells and a single upright hinge contribute to a unicompartmental unloading of the knee joint.
  • The unloading is effective only when needed, no condyle pressure during sitting or swing phase.
  • A slender perforated frame with soft edges, contours easily to individual anatomies and remains discreet whether worn over or under clothing.
  • Skin friendly liners and pads as well as a smooth inner surface of shells reduce probability of pressure points.
  • The gastroc strap is positioned over thickest part of calf to help prevent migration.
  • Tool-free SmartDosing® dials enable the patient to be in control of their pain level by fine-tuning the strap tension.
  • Color coded touchpoints and Quick-Fit buckles increase user-friendliness.
  • Alignment guide on hinge facilitates correct positioning on the leg.
