Description
Össur Rebound Post-Op and Post-Injury Knee Brace
The Össur Rebound Post-Op and Post-Injury Knee Brace is designed to protect and support the knee following surgery or a significant injury. It allows a healthcare professional to control how far the knee can bend and straighten, helping to protect healing tissues while the patient begins their rehabilitation.
Its lightweight, adjustable frame provides a secure and comfortable fit, while the range-of-motion hinges can be set to match the restrictions advised by the treating clinician.
The Rebound Post-Op Knee Brace is suitable for a wide range of patients and is available in Universal, Paediatric and XL sizes.
Professional fitting is required. This brace should be fitted and adjusted by an appropriately trained healthcare professional.
Controlled knee movement during recovery
Following knee surgery or injury, it may be necessary to temporarily restrict movement or hold the knee in a set position. The Rebound Post-Op Knee Brace can be adjusted to control knee flexion and extension, supporting a gradual and clinician-led return to movement.
The brace may also be locked when knee immobilisation is required.

When may a post-operative knee brace be recommended?
The Össur Rebound Post-Op Knee Brace may be recommended when knee immobilisation or controlled range of motion is required following surgery or injury.
This may include recovery following:
- ACL reconstruction or injury
- PCL reconstruction or injury
- MCL or LCL repair and injury
- Meniscus repair
- Tibial plateau fracture
- Patellar tendon repair
- Osteochondral repair
- Femoral condyle fracture

- High tibial osteotomy, also known as an HTO
Other knee procedures where movement needs to be temporarily restricted
The appropriate settings and length of use will depend on the procedure, injury and individual rehabilitation plan.
Secure and comfortable fit
Post-operative knee braces are often worn for several weeks, so comfort and fit are important. The Rebound Post-Op Knee Brace uses contoured paddles and anti-migration straps to help keep the brace securely positioned on the leg.
The lightweight frame reduces unnecessary bulk, while the protected edges help prevent the brace from digging into the skin.
Easy for patients to manage
The colour-coded buckles help patients understand which parts of the brace they can safely adjust. Numbered markings on the frame also make it easier to return the brace to the correct position after clothing changes, rehabilitation exercises or skin checks.
Patients should not alter the hinge settings unless instructed to do so by their healthcare professional.
