The CTi knee brace is our flagship ligament brace. Introduced in 1983, CTi® remains the cornerstone of our ligament bracing product line today. While the original CTi has evolved over time, our basic philosophy remains unchanged. Specifically, we still contend that a static support system consisting of a rigid brace frame that captures the tibia and non-elastic cruciate straps is superior to the dynamic solutions offered by most other ligament brace manufacturers. A rigid brace frame that captures the tibia is ideal. Non-rigid braces fail under significant stress and braces that substitute soft tissue containment for brace-to-bone contact usually have increased migration problems. The rigid, carbon composite CTi knee brace frame captures the tibia, providing the brace-to-bone contact needed for maximum stabilization of the knee joint. Non-elastic cruciate strapping is also crucial. When combined with a rigid frame that truly captures the tibia, the result is a static support system. Dynamic support systems with rubber (or elastic) cruciate straps merely realign the knee joint after it has begun to displace. Static systems hold the bones in proper alignment to help prevent displacement altogether. The Accutrac® hinge mimics the natural motion of the knee joint. By analyzing natural leg motion, we invented a patented 4-bar linkage system to more accurately mimic the natural movement of the leg without a brace. Most of our ligament braces, including CTi, feature the Accutrac hinge, which is also available in a ROM version for many of our ligament products. Total support. In addition to the Accutrac hinge, CTi features a Total Support System™ for ligament, rotary and combined instabilities (see right). CTi goes off-the-shelf. In 2007, we introduced an off-the-shelf (OTS) version of this classic. CTi OTS replaces a portion of the rigid tibial component of the custom model with a flexible subshell and Adjustable Tibial Strap (ATS). This solution still captures the tibia, yet provides adjustability for variances in patient anatomy and an excellent out-of-the-box fit. Reduced Migration. Össur Sensil® Silicone is well-established in the prosthetics industry. In 2007, we integrated this proprietary technology with an Aerospacer base mesh fabric to create a patent-pending, breathable padding system for CTi that virtually eliminates migration. CTi technology is incorporated into our entire line. Whether custom or off-the-shelf, premium or economy, every Össur ligament brace benefits from the technology behind CTi. In particular, every product in our ligament line incorporates some combination of a rigid brace frame, flexible subshells, padding and strapping to capture the tibia. While the 100% rigid tibial capture component of the CTi custom brace provides the highest level of protection and support, other products in our line may be more appropriate for your patient, depending on their unique needs and activity level. The steadman clinic studies In studies of acl-deficient professional skiers, non-braced skiers had 6.4 times greater risk of subsequent knee injury than skiers braced with a cti knee brace.

Returned merchandise is subject to a restocking fee. Payment Terms Net 30 days on approved credit digital measuring System (DMS) 1 2 Photos can be taken with a digital camera or smartphone. If using a smartphone, we suggest you download one of the free grid camera applications. This will help minimize angle distortion. • Apply landmarks to the leg with a marker at the medial and lateral joint spaces,1 plus a line along the tibial crest between the center of the tibial tuberosity2 and 6" (15cm) below. Extra landmarks can be added for better accuracy during chart analysis (e.g., outline patella). 3 4 • With the patient in a weight-bearing position, obtain the M-L measurement at the joint space and record this value on the patient sticker.3 • Measure circumference at 3" (7.5cm) and 6" (15cm) both above and below the patella4 and record these values on the patient sticker. • Apply patient sticker 6" (15cm) above mid-patella for anterior view photo. 5 6 • If using a digital camera, adjust the height of the camera stand until the camera is level with the middle of the patella. If using a smartphone, aim and hold the phone so the lens is level with the middle of the patella. • Move the camera stand (or smart phone) approximately 2-3 feet (61-91cm) away from the patient, capturing roughly 8" (20cm) both above and below mid-patella in the viewfinder.5 Note: Align the camera with the leg to eliminate any internal or external rotation. • Have the patient turn 90,° reapply patient sticker 6" (15cm) above joint line, and take a picture of the lateral view.6 • Complete the Online Data Form at www.ossur.com/dms, attach the photos and submit. coordinate cast System (CCS) 1 • With the patient in a weight-bearing position, use the calipers to obtain the M-L measurement at the joint space and record the value on the order form. • Mark the patient’s leg at mid-patella, as well as 3", 6" and 8" above and below mid- patella.1 2 3 4 • With the ankle held at 90 degrees, record the circumference in centimeters at each of the marked points from Step 1 above on the Custom Knee Brace order form.2 If measuring for a CTi brace: Measure the patient’s tibial alignment using the standing graduated slider.3 At the mark 3" below mid-patella, bring the tool towards the lateral side of the calf until it just touches the skin. Slide the horizontal bar down until it just touches the tibial crest. Read the number on the horizontal bar at the point of intersection with the tibial crest. Repeat this at the mark 8" below mid-patella. Record these two measurements on the order form next to the 3” BELOW and 8” BELOW bubbles. • Center the patient’s leg with mid-patella mark on line 5 of the tracing board.4 You can use the centerline on the tracing tube to help align the mid-patella directly on line 5. Note: If the patient has excessive tissue, use the knee center block to raise the knee off the board. This helps maintain a proper profile of the leg. • At the top of the board, hold the base of the tracing device flat on the board with the pen tip facing the leg. Keep in contact with the leg while tracing the profile down to the bottom of the board.5 5 • Without moving the leg, repeat on the other side. • On the Custom Knee Brace order form, record the number where the tracing line intersects each of the nine coordinates lines for sides A and B. ordering information All Ligament Braces: Full Sleeves Sofsleeve Neoprene Undersleeve Neoprene Oversleeve Sports Undersleeve Padded Sports Oversleeve <15" 20643 20251 20051 20682 20448 15-18" 20644 20252 20052 20683 20448 Large 18-19.5" 20644 20253 20053 20684 20449 XLarge 19.5-21.5" 20645 20254 20054 20685 20449 2XLarge 21.5-24.5" 20645 20255 20055 3XLarge 24.5-28" 20646 20256 20056 4XLarge 28-34" 20647 20257 20057 Size Circumference Small Medium CTi® Custom Right1 Left1 Measurements2 Ships Color B-11X500010 B-11X600010 DMS , CMS, CCS, cast mold 3-5 days 12 Colors (See Page 10) or Custom Paint 1 X = 6 (Standard), 7 (Pro Sport), or 8 (Vapor) 2 DMS = Digital Measuring System, CMS = Custom Measuring System, CCS = Coordinate Cast System, CAD = Computer Aided Design CTi® Custom: Sized Kits Size Strap Kit1 ACL Strap Kit1 PCL Kit Moto X Kit2 Small B-70113X002 B-70113X041 B-705000032 B-705130072 Medium B-70113X003 B-70113X042 B-705000033 B-705130073 Large B-70113X004 B-70113X044 B-705000034 B-705130074 XLarge B-70113X005 B-70113X046 B-705000035 1 X = 0 (non-riveted, top strap screwed in) or 1 (riveted, top strap has a slot) 2 Moto X Kit includes patella cup, gear guards, undersleeve and CTi stickers CTi Custom: Silicone Liners & Strap Pads Size Strap Pads (Black) Size Liners1 Small B-304010057 (3.5") Small/Medium B-411X00112 Medium/Large B-304010058 (5") Large B-411X00114 XLarge/2XLarge B-304010059 (7") XLarge B-411X30114 1 X = 5 (Right) or 6 (left) 26 ordering information CTi Custom: Miscellaneous Accessories & Options Description Part #
