Adjustable OA Defiance III
Ideal Application Adjustable OA Defiance™ is DonJoy's premier OA product. It is designed for the active OA patient who does not want to compromise their high level of activity. The Adjustable OA Defiance is an extremely lightweight brace that provides durable support for moderate to severe levels of osteoarthritis. The bilateral hinge bars offer support for ligament instabilities and work in conjunction with a patented telescoping condyle pad which puts the load control in the hands of the patient.
