Loadshifter mechanism (corrective force technology) - The brace is fabricated with dual Loadshifter mechanisms for maximum adjustability. This brace can be used universally for medial or lateral OA. Medical professionals can shorten and/or lengthen the uprights to shift the thigh shell angle up to 18 degrees. Increasing corrective force at the proximal end amplifies the affect of the three-point pressure and makes the brace lower profile (at knee center) than other manufacturers’ OA braces
