The DonJoy Female FourcePoint Knee Braces Information Females are 3-8 times more likely to sustain an ACL tear than males. In addition, over 70 percent of all ACL injuries occur during non-contact activities, such as cutting, jumping and twisting maneuvers. The DonJoy Female Fource addresses biomechanical factors that have been implicated in the high incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears in females. Females tend to perform cutting and landing maneuvers with their knees and hips in an extended and less protected position. The Female Fource incorporates dj Orthopedics’ FourcePoint hinge technology, which has been clinically demonstrated to increase knee flexion angles, limiting the time the knee spends in at-risk positions during activity; therefore, providing females the protection they need. The Female Fource is the first functional knee brace to come with a custom graphics sticker sheet to allow patients to personalize their braces to their own liking. In addition, with nearly 212,000 females being diagnosed with breast cancer and approximately 40,000 losing their life from the disease in 2005, DonJoy will be contributing to breast cancer initiatives. DonJoy’s OTS Female Fource is a lightweight, low profile functional knee brace designed specifically for females and is perfect for the active female returning to sport or the general female population returning to activities of daily living where an OTS brace is required. Patented FourcePoint Hinge Technology: The only bracing technology clinically proven to protect the ACL. Reduces the time spent near full extension, or in the "at risk" position. Enhances the Four-Points-of-Leverage design by increasing the posterior load applied by the brace on the tibia. Improves a patient's natural gait by applying progressive resistance before reaching a firm end point. Four-Points-of-Leverage design for superior ligament protection and comfort. Sleek, low profile (0.080-0.125" thick), aesthetically pleasing, aircraft grade aluminum frame. Medial Swooping Thigh Frame for increased medial thigh clearance. Press fit upper thigh rivets for a low profile, sleek design. Swiveling strap tabs to match anatomy through movement. Anti-Migration calf strap and Supra condylar Pad for brace suspension. Custom Graphics Sticker Kit to personalize the brace to your own liking. Lightweight (18oz). Moldable frame for a custom fit. One-year warranty on frame and hinge. 6 months warranty on soft goods. Breast Cancer Donation to support breast cancer initiatives.

DonJoy Fource ACL Knee Brace
The FourcePoint Technology was developed to further protect the ACL and enhance the Four Points of Leverage brace design. The patented FourcePoint hinges are designed to react during leg extension and offer an increasing resistance in the last 35° of extension, in order to reduce extension shock and increased posterior tibial loads. The hinge has 3 adjustment settings to vary the amount of resistance to meet the specification of the physician's protocols.
