DonJoy Reddie Brace Hinged Knee Support
The DonJoy Reddie Brace is a high-performance clinical orthosis engineered for patients who require significant joint stabilization but struggle with traditional pull-on sleeves. By utilizing a front-closure wraparound design, this brace creates a Zero-Friction application process, making it the ideal solution for patients with limited hand dexterity, swelling, or a preference for easy adjustability. Featuring removable dual-axis polycentric hinges, the Reddie Brace mimics the natural motion of the knee while providing the mechanical guidance necessary to manage MCL/LCL sprains, meniscus irritations, and moderate joint laxity.

The Clinical Authority: Why Professionals Trust the Reddie Brace
Orthopedic specialists and Physical Therapists specify the DonJoy Reddie Brace for its exceptional "universal utility." Its "Zero-Friction" environment is the gold standard for post-operative recovery and the management of chronic ligamentous laxity. By allowing for a customized tensioning across the front of the joint, the brace ensures that the hinges remain perfectly aligned with the knee's center of rotation. This targeted approach is highly effective for protecting the collateral ligaments from lateral stress, allowing for a safer return to daily activities and rehabilitative exercise.
FAQ: Application & Support
Is this brace easy to put on if I have swelling?
Yes. The "Zero-Friction" wraparound design means you can open the brace fully and secure it around the leg, rather than sliding it on, which is much more comfortable for a swollen joint.
Can I remove the hinges?
Yes. The "Zero-Friction" hinges are housed in internal pockets and can be removed for cleaning or if a lower level of support is required during the later stages of recovery.
Does it fit either leg?
Yes. The anatomical design is universal, providing a "Zero-Friction" clinical fit for both the Left and Right knee.
