Our patented DonJoy® FourcePoint technology is designed
to react during leg extension. It utilizes a spring mechanism
in the hinge to apply gradually increasing resistance
during the last 25° of extension.
The resistance serves three critical roles:
• Reduces the time spent near full extension or
in the “at risk” position
• Increases the posterior load applied by the
brace on the tibia to prevent anterior tibial translation
• Eliminates the extension shock felt when a patient
extends into a 10? standard rigid stop!
