More About ShortRunner Wraparound Knee Brace

Application Instructions For Knee Braces:


  • The wrap-on brace is applied with the closures in the front of the leg and the kneecap cutout centered over the knee. Secure the closures firmly
  • The slip-on brace is applied by pulling the brace on with the kneecap cutout centered over the knee
  • Both the wrap-on and pull-on braces have tightening straps. The straps should be tightened firmly, starting with the two straps closest to the knee.

Adjustment Instructions:



  • Polycentric hinge with stops:
    - Both flexion and extension stops are supplied with the brace.The brace comes with a 10° extension stop already installed. The stops are labeled in degrees as follows:
    - Extension Stops:
    • 0°, 10°, 20°, 30° & 40°
    - Flexion Stops:
    • 45°, 60°, 75° & 90°
    (no flexion stops are installed upon shipment)
    - To change the stops, first, completely remove the screw as shown. Then remove the stop. Insert the new stop, align with the holes in the hinge, then reinsert the screw.
    - Using a Phillips head screw driver, ensure that the screws are seated in the recess and completely tightened.
    - Both medial (inside) and lateral (outside) hinge stops must be identical in degree.
  • NOTE: Due to soft tissue compression, we recommend the use of extension stops at least 10° greater than the desired limit. (e.g., if you desire a 10° extension limit, use the 20° extension stop).

Tips on use and care of knee brace:



  • After exposure to salt water or dirt, thoroughly rinse the brace with fresh water and allow to air dry.
  • A dry lubricant, such as Teflon spray, may be used on the hinge occasionally. Do not use wet lubricants.
  • The hinge assemblies may be removed to allow easier washing of the sleeve and straps.
  • The side bars may be bent to accommodate individual legs. Bend in equal amounts above and below the hinge.
  • Periodically inspect the sleeve, straps, and hinges for excessive wear. Be sure all screws are tight and stop in place.
