ABSTRACT:
A knee brace useful in treatment and diagnosis of patella subluxation, chondromalacia, and inflamatory conditions and strains of the extensor mechanism of the knee. The brace includes two para-patellar pads which function to stabilize the patella, an infra-patellar ligament pad which applies direct pressure to the patellar ligament and a supra-patellar and an infra-patella live elastic straps which apply compressive forces to the quadriceps mass and to the patellar ligament to diminish shocking, compression and tensile forces to the extensor mechanism.
