Short Description
Corflex Knee-O-Trakker with Hinge 6" features textured C-shaped buttress for maximum patella control and versatile strapping system that provides dynamic treatment with adjustable tension control. Plastic hinges provide added medial and lateral support. Made from latex free neoprene.
The Corflex 6" Knee-O-Trakker with Hinge is specifically engineered for patients who require significant patellar tracking support without the bulk of a standard 12-inch brace. Its unique C-shaped buttress is textured to grip the skin, ensuring the kneecap stays centered during movement.
Corflex 6" Knee-O-Trakker with Hinge Key Performance Features:
- Dynamic Patellar Control: The versatile strap system allows you to adjust the tension of the C-buttress dynamically, providing more or less pressure as needed during different stages of rehabilitation.
- Lightweight Stability: High-density plastic hinges offer structural support against lateral shifts without adding the weight of heavy metal hinges.
- Ergonomic 6-Inch Length: The shortened length prevents "bunching" behind the knee, making it more comfortable for sitting, driving, or active workplace tasks.
- Premium Neoprene: Provides thermal compression to soothe arthritic joints and increase blood flow.
- CoolTex: A neoprene-free alternative that offers excellent breathability—perfect for patients with skin sensitivities or those living in warmer climates.

Indications & Clinical Uses
The Corflex 6" Knee-O-Trakker with Hinge is a professional-grade solution for stabilizing the kneecap and reducing anterior knee pain. It is clinically indicated for:
- Patella Subluxation: Provides critical lateral support to prevent the kneecap from slipping out of its natural groove during movement.
- Patellofemoral Syndrome (Runner’s Knee): Alleviates the "grinding" sensation and pain behind the kneecap often caused by improper tracking.
- Chondromalacia Patella: Reduces pressure on the underside of the kneecap to help protect damaged cartilage from further irritation.
- Patella Tendonitis (Jumper’s Knee): Offloads tension from the patellar tendon, making it easier to return to jumping and running activities.
- Post-Surgical Stabilization: Acts as a low-profile support during the rehabilitation phase after patellar realignment surgery.
