Features and Benefits of the Selection Patella Brace

How Does the Selection Patella Brace Work?

The Selection Patella Brace combines stabilisation and compression to reduce further injury and encourage recovery. Dual splints and a patella opening stabilise the knee joint whilst warm compression supports blood flow to the injured site, encouraging recovery.

How Do I Use the Selection Patella Brace Correctly?

  • If this is the first time you are using a support it is important to start slowly.
  • Use the support for a short period of time the first day, then increase the use gradually. 
  • The support should not be used overnight. 

How Adjustable is the Selection Knee Patella Brace?

The Selection Patella Brace can be adjusted to suit the wearer's injuries. Where additional pressure is needed, the patella cap can be moved into different positions: the middle, the sides or beneath the knee cap.

How Do I Fit the Selection Knee Patella Brace?

  1. ​Check that the support is complete and without damage.
  2. Remove the Patella pad and insert in desired position (from the side or from under the patella). Loosen all the Velcro straps.
  3. Pull the sleeve up (use the two pulling loops placed on the inside of the upper edge) and make sure that the brace is properly positioned with the patella centered in the patella opening.
  4. Always make sure that the Patella pad is correctly positioned according to the instructions from the fitter.
  5. Close the calf strap on the back side (A) and make sure the strap ”sits” on top of the calf muscle to prevent from sliding down.
  6. Close the front strap on the thigh (B). Then close the thigh strap on the back side of the leg (C).
  7. Depending of the position of the Patella Pad - either pull the two tabs (D) to give support from under the patella, or the two tabs (E) to give support from the side of the patella.
