Medline Tri-Panel Knee Immobilizers

Which Model is Right for You? Basic vs. Deluxe

Both models provide excellent, firm immobilization for injury recovery. The primary difference is the material:

• Choose the Basic model for a durable, canvas-like construction that offers maximum support.
• Choose the Deluxe model for a softer, foam-based construction that provides more padding and comfort, especially for longer wear.

How to Choose Your Perfect Fit: A 2-Step Guide

Finding the right size is the most important step for a comfortable and effective fit. Please use this guide to select the correct immobilizer.

1. Determine Your Length: The "Size" (12", 16", 20", etc.) refers to the vertical length of the immobilizer. For a proper fit, it should extend from your mid-calf to your mid-thigh. As a general rule: 12"-16" for shorter adults, 20"-22" for average heights, and 24" for taller adults (over 6'1").
2. Check Your Thigh Circumference: To ensure a good fit for your leg, use a soft tape measure on your thigh approximately 6 inches above the middle of your kneecap. All sizes of this model are designed to fit a maximum thigh circumference of 24 inches.
