The DonJoy Drytex Playmaker with Drop Lock Hinge Information

The DonJoy Drytex Playmaker with Drop Lock Hinge is a unique variation of the traditional Playmaker knee brace.

The DropLock Hinge locks the knee in full extension, and then allows a quick release "drop lock", to allow full flexion. The brace is ideal for post-operative use, post-polio and MS patients.

This brace is ideal for patients who have neoprene-based irritations or allergies or live in warm weather climates. Choose from slip-on or wrap-on styles.

  • Combined ACL/PCL protection featuring patented 4-point dynamic leverage system.***
  • DropLock hinges are ideal for full leg extension lock for patient standing assist, post-operative use, MS patients, ACL/Quadriceps complications and post-polio syndrome.
  • Identical to the Playmaker Wraparound except with the drop lock hinge.
  • Low-profile, lightweight design.
  • Versatile strapping.
  • With or without popliteal cutout.
  • Full-circumference thigh strap for CL protection.
  • With or without popliteal cutout (cutout in the back of the brace to allow more breathability and prevent bunching).
  • 90 day warranty on frame and hinge.
  • Available in black only.

The DonJoy Drytex Playmaker with DropLock Hinge Knee Brace

***The Four Points of Leverage combine to successfully apply a net differential posterior force, or constant force to the tibia, which reduces the instability in the ACL.

  • Point 1 Anterior: The first point of leverage is the anterior thigh cuff. It acts as a point for rotating the femur anteriorly.
  • Point 2 Posterior: The second point of leverage is the posterior calf cuff. It acts as a point for rotating the tibia posteriorly.
  • Point 3 Posterior: The third point of leverage is a posterior thigh strap, which is applied while drawing the hinge bars posteriorly on the knee.
  • Point 4 Anterior: Incorporating the fourth point generates the crucial opposing force. By tightening and affixing the anterior tibial strap, the hinge is drawn into proper position, and the tibia is rotated posteriorly.

The DonJoy Drytex Playmaker with DropLock Hinge Knee Brace What is the cause of ACL Tears?

Hyperextension of the knee more than 10 degrees beyond its normal fully straightened position, and excessive inwards rotation of the lower leg is a very common cause of an ACL tear. 		The DonJoy Drytex Playmaker with DropLock Hinge Knee Brace
