Who Can Use the Masterhinge Knee Hinge?
The Masterhinge Knee Hinge is designed for use by doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals working with patients who require knee casting. It helps to allow patients to maintain a more supported movement following an operation, and is suitable for use as part of treatment for fractures and ligament injuries.
How Does the Bi-Pivotal Mechanism Work?
The bi-pivotal hinge mechanism provides controlled movement at the joint. This allows for natural motion of the knee, while also providing the option of fixing the hinge in place. Adjustors allow for limitations in flexion and extension as required during the healing process.
Can the Hinge Be Locked In Place?
If movement needs to be locked or restricted at any point during the healing process, then the Masterhinge can be locked in place. If it does not need to be locked, then full range of motion is supported.
