OAsys^® Carticare

While OAsys is primarily designed to provide on-the-spot medial or lateral unloading for the relief of pain due to unicompartmental osteoarthritis, it is also appropriate for a host of post-op, rehab and functional applications. These include post-operative protection of repaired articular surfaces, long-term rehabilitation protocols requiring unloading and/or adjustable ROM control and functional support for patients with or without varus/valgus alignment.

Indications for Use

• Medial or lateral compartment unloading for unicompartmental OA or articular cartilage healing
• Post-op, rehab and functional support plus unloading for protocols requiring reduced medial or lateral joint loads during recovery
• Functional support for patients with varus or valgus alignment
• Low to moderate activities of daily living
