Bauerfeind Genutrain Knee brace
Features Active
support for relief and stabilization of the knee Lower
compression at the edges produces a gradual reduction in pressure at both ends of the support. The anatomically contoured
knit isbreathable and stretched by spiral stays on the sides of the support. A circular viscoelastic insert surrounds the patella and facilitates correct positioning of the support.
Special knitting techniques make the support extremely
comfortable to wear, including behind the knee.
Indications Knee strains or sprains - A sudden or violent twist or wrench of a joint causing
the stretching or twisting of ligaments and often rupture of blood vessels with hemorrhage to the tissues. Knee instability Post arthroscopy
Recurrent knee pain Pre and post-operative knee inflammation - A response from an injury that
may be characterized by redness, heat, pain, swelling and loss of function. Chondromalacia - (Runner's Knee)- Aching pain behind the kneecap. Pain begins and progresses
slowly. It appears in healthy, athletically active young people. Adolescent
knee pain Osgood-Schlatter's disease Arthritis / osteoarthritis - Inflammation of joints.  | | GenuTrain® Back View |

Bauerfeind Genutrain A3 Knee brace
The active support for complex treatment of knee pain. Features The newly developed insert form encompasses typical pain areas and important receptor zones of the knee joint.
In addition, the viscoelastic insert has friction zones that are covered with nubs. The patella corrective guide is imbedded
in the insert zone. The breathable, anatomical knit is very comfortable to wear. Two spiral stays located on the sides retain
the shape of the knit. A special, non-irritative weave is incorporatedin the critical area behind the knee. A stretch zone
in the lower leg area facilitates application and removal.
Mode
of action The compression/decompression
effect resulting from movement similar to a friction massage promotes the reduction of edema and resorption of swelling. This
accelerates the healing process and leads to pain reduction in the medial subcapsular ligament area. The stimulation of skin
receptors and nerve endings in the muscle-tendon transition supports the neuro-myonal system. This leads to a synchronization
and activation of musculature. The vastus medialis is stimulated in particular. The rectus tendon is left free. The integrated
corrective guide counteracts patellar drifting.
Indications- Irritative conditions, especially gonarthrosis (also the onset of ligamentosis,
tendomyopathy, posttraumatic and postoperative)
- Knee pain with functional
instability due to general muscular disbalance
- Patellar lateralization

Our view
"Very
neat brace and patella guidance system which will not migrate like other patella control braces"
 | Size is determined by measuring: Point 1. Circumference at 12cm below the centre of the knee
Point 2. Circumference at 14cm above the centre of the knee
* If your measurements fall on the border, it is recommended that you go up in size.

Bauerfeind Genutrain S Knee brace
The active support for complex treatment of knee pain and mild medio/lateral
instability of the knee. Features
New knitting concept: particularly stretchy, breathable and moisture
dissipating for effective compression and excellent wearing comfort.
The
sidebars are additionally secured with circular, inelastic straps. Special knitting
techniques make the support extremely comfortable to wear, including behind the knee. The
anatomically shaped bars can be heated and reshaped and are inserted in lateral guide channels. A circular viscoelastic insert surrounds the patella and facilitates correct positioning of
the support.
Mode of action The combination of joint bars and a strap system provides added passive support to the knee.
The positive effect on the sensorimotor system provides added active support to the knee. Knee activity moves the padded ring, thereby massaging the parapatellar soft tissue structures. The compression and massage effects accelerate the reabsorption of edema and effusions.
Indications
- Slight instability of the knee
- Collateral ligament laxity
- Osteoarthritis of the knee
- Arthritis
(e.g. rheumatoid arthritis)
