Short Description
Breg PTO High Performance Knee Brace is designed to align the knee for patients with maltracking or patella; high performance hinge bars for greater strength. Breathable Airmesh material for comfort.
The Breg PTO High Performance Knee Brace is the leading soft knee brace design for treating patellofemoral knee pain. Designed to be much more than a typical patella stabilizer, the High-Performance PTO incorporates the same unique design as the original PTO model along with stronger hinge bars for contact sports and sliding activities. It not only assists in normalizing patella tracking, but also controls knee hyperextension to enhance knee support. The Breg PTO High Performance knee product features the patented Cawley PTO Tension Hinge which dynamically adjusts the amount of compression applied from the lateral pressure plate on the buttress according to the flexion angle of your knee. As your knee moves into an extended position the plate and buttress work together to form a lateral "soft tissue wall" to control patella subluxation. The Breg PTO High Performance knee brace uses the same materials as found in the original version, yet has stiffer aluminum hinge bars than the regular design for increased strength. This additional hinge bar strength provides maximum performance/control for contact sports and sliding. It is available in both neoprene or breathable Airmesh fabric.
Breg PTO High Performance Knee Brace Features:
- Patented Dynamic Control: Features the Cawley Tension Hinge that progressively increases patella control as the knee extends, stabilizing the kneecap through your full stride.
- Enhanced Hinge Strength: Built with stronger aluminum hinge bars for maximum performance and durability during contact sports or sliding activities.
- Progressive Compression: Applies peak force at full extension to form a lateral "soft tissue wall," preventing patella subluxation.
- Additional Support Straps: Dedicated thigh and calf straps ensure a secure fit and apply comprehensive support to the brace.
- Airmesh Material: Latex-free Airmesh (lycra/polyester) material provides compression and breathability for comfort.
- Open Back Panel: Open politeal cutout behind the back of the knee reduces bunching of material.
- Design & Fit: Lightweight, low-profile, and available as Right/Left specific to ensure an anatomical, precise fit.
- Six Sizes Available: See Size & Fit tab for sizing information and measurement/fit help.
- Recommended Manufacturer HCPC: L1820
