Patients who were unable to straighten their leg had decreased range of motion, decreased quadriceps strength, decreased walking ability, and decreased quality of life.
Failure to straighten the leg was also associated with an increased risk of needing a second surgery.
After your knee replacement, or other knee surgery, you might think your knee will work just fine.
Unfortunately, many people do not realize that straightening the knee after surgery is not as simple as they originally thought. Along with loss of strength, reduced extension is one of the most common complaints following knee replacement. Full motion of the knee can take three to six months to regain after surgery.
A customized physical therapy program will address residual stiffness by combining stretching, exercise and a steady, safe return to your daily activities. For some people, the challenge to get the knee extended properly after surgery can result from poor pain control, making it hard to move the knee; stiffness before surgery, which makes it more likely there will be stiffness afterward; heavy scarring because some people form scar tissue more readily than others.
This is why it's CRUCIAL to wear your Miracle Brace, immediately after your surgery.
Here are the individual components of the Air Pillow. This is our latest version, Model#101. On the left is the "Shell" which consists of the Patented 6 layer Air Pillow and the Inflator. The longer section is the rigid Brace with 3 layers of Comfort Cushioning encased in Anti Microbial material. On the right are the wide Comfort bands to comfortably secure your leg in The Miracle Brace.
The leg is placed in the Brace and secured by the wide Comfort Bands. Note the degree of the knee. The Brace is designed to accommodate nearly any possible degree.
The Shell encasing the Patented Air Pillow is secured around the leg using the Adjustable Quick Release Buckles. Before securing the buckles, ensure the Air Pillows are completely deflated by depressing the button with your thumb (see next photo). Ensure the buckles are comfortably snug.
The Inflator pump bulb is depressed multiple times with your hand, to reach the desired degree of therapy. It is quickly deflated using the button under the Users thumb.
You can now begin to see and feel the gentle Therapy being applied as the Air Pillows begin to Inflate.
Here The Comfort Pillows are inflated to the Patients' desired level of Therapy and Straightening. It is a long duration and low-load application to the Patients' degree of comfort, to maximize gains and minimize recovery time, with maximum comfort.
Post-op instructions after having arthroscopic knee surgery are fairly simple and mostly involve ways to improve healing and to speed up the recovery period. You will be advised to limit the movement of your knee for a period of time after arthroscopy, and a knee brace is usually key in maintaining knee immobilization while your knee heals.
Knee braces are also recommended if your arthroscopic surgery involves repairing a torn ACL (anterior cruciate ligament). This is because the graft that your orthopedic surgeon uses to reconstruct your ACL takes time to heal. During the healing process – which may take six to ten weeks or even longer – your knee is at risk of damage, particularly if you put too much force on it. So, wearing a knee brace after arthroscopic knee surgery can protect the joint while it heals
You will be advised to remove the brace when you take a shower or bath. This will give your knee and leg a break from wearing the brace, but you will receive instructions as to how to be careful and how to shower without jarring the healing knee. You are likely to be asked to keep the knee brace on when sleeping, standing, and walking. The brace will help the knee to stay straight and not suffer an accidental twist or impact.
Keep in mind that wearing a brace is much better than having to wear a cast. You cannot remove a cast, whereas you can remove the knee brace and give your leg a break while sitting or lying down. It is best to keep the leg elevated while at rest, as this will help to foster proper blood circulation away from the leg (thereby avoiding swelling) and toward the heart.
