Knee brace for complete knee protection, massive anterior, posterior, lateral and medial stability.
Knee brace for LCM and LCL collateral ligaments and LCA and LCP cruciate ligaments, patella syndromes, Ultimate Protect massive stability, total joint protection, injury recovery.
ZK-PROTECT is the latest and most complete knee support for stabilising the knee ligaments and joint complex. It is ideal for athletes and spotsmen and women who have suffered ligament injuries or injuries (severe to serious) or who want to preserve the ligamentous apparatus from new injuries. It is characterised by the presence of advanced progressive dynamic polymer splints, which allow very fluid flexion/extension movements with absolute support, double X-bands with Velcro fasteners crossed against each other ensure effective compression and total stability of the joint.
Product pluses:
- Exo-Tech exoskeleton with four-directional hold: ACL (anterior cruciate ligament), LCL (lateral collateral ligament), LCM (medial collateral ligament) and LCP (posterior cruciate ligament);
- Functional Resin Stays Ultimate Protector with lateral polymer reinforcements of progressive dynamic type, perfectly stabilises the joint by offering progressively more support depending on the degree of bending and/or movement and/or tension;
- Double X-Strap in the lower front and upper back and double Velcro fastening at the bottom and top for a perfect fit of the knee pad even under intensive competitive use;
- Functional Patella Pad providing a large pressure area around the patella for maximum joint stability and functional effectiveness;
- Stretchy, breathable material with V-Tech technology that wicks perspiration away and facilitates flexion and extension movements; 3D Mesh in the back for maximum breathability under intensive use;
TYPE OF INJURY: Various degrees of injury to the ligamentous apparatus, recovery from ligament ruptures, all types of patellar and meniscus syndromes. Total protection of the ligamentous tendon group. Massive stability with Ultimate Protect technology with total protection of the joint compartment. Knee sprains occur when the ligaments supporting the knee are overstretched (stretched), or torn (partially or totally) due to internal or external factors. ACL injuries are usually the result of lateral trauma (common in 'contact' sports such as football, basketball, rugby) or valgus stress (falling on skis with spread legs), but if it is the ACL that is damaged, the tibia follows the thrust and does not resist. Injuries to the ACL often follow a twisting of the knee (falls in rotation as in basketball, volleyball, skiing) or a forced maximum flexion or extension, finally, injuries to the LCL almost always occur in the case of direct anterior trauma with a flexed knee (frontal collision) and there is a perceived looseness in the patella.
SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS: There are 3 degrees of ligamentous injury with increasing severity: I) It is a mild stretch of the ligament fibres with the presence of pain and swelling in the knee, medial or lateral but without clinical signs of instability. II) The ligament is partially torn, with live pain, swelling and associated lateral or medial knee instability. III) Almost complete ligament tear, with the knee showing severe instability, excessive swelling and often associated meniscal injury. Patellar injuries of varying degrees depending on the extent of the injury. Injuries and/or wear and tear of the joint cartilage and associated damage to the connective tissues of the knee joint with acute and violent pain at the time of injury, the stronger the greater the percentage of injured fibres, the initial pain is followed by a muscle spasm, the pain increases during palpation of the injured area, limitation of mobility, appearance of swelling.
TREATMENT OF INJURIES: Always consult a medical specialist, indicatively a torn anterior (or posterior) cruciate ligament is NOT able to heal adequately so central injuries require surgical treatment.
Peripheral injuries (medial and lateral collateral ligaments) are ligamentous injuries that rarely require surgical repair because they heal completely: the product was conceived for this purpose from the physiotherapy experience of Nippon Sigma Group Ltd.
WARNING: Always consult your doctor for an objective examination and to make the correct diagnosis.
