Intended purpose

medi Classic / medi Jeans is a knee
immobilising brace. The product is
exclusively to be used for the orthotic
fitting of the knee and only on unbroken
skin or if any wounds have been properly
covered.
Indications
• Post-operative immobilisation
• Pre-operative pain conditions
• Following patella dislocations
Contraindications
• Thrombosis of the deep veins of the leg
and thigh
Important notes
Occasionally pain may develop in the
calf during the first few hours of use. If
this has not reduced considerably after
24 hours, the doctor should be
contacted. You should also contact your
doctor in the case of sudden pain,
swelling, loss of sensation or a feeling of
coldness in the foot or if the toes
become blue. In this event, while you are
waiting for the doctor, loosen the Velcro
fasteners and keep the leg completely
still until you are given further
instructions.
Applying the brace
• Open all velcro fastenings, and place
the brace over the patient's leg (Fig. 1).

lengthened or shortened. Simply
release the side velcro, and reattach it
at the new position. (Fig. 2)
• If necessary, the medial and lateral
rods can be moulded (Fig. 3).
• Wrap the sides around the leg so that
the kneecap remains uncovered.
• First close the thigh straps, then the
calf straps. Tighten the Velcro fastener
directly above the knee again

washing and remove the ortheses. Soap
residues, lotions and ointments can
