Comprehensive OA therapy concept

From the initial osteoarthritis diagnosis through to long-term therapy

The medi gonarthrosis therapy concept is based on the recommendations of the Osteoarthritis Research Society International (OARSI). It provides physicians, specialist retailers and patients with comprehensive treatment options because: medi provides solutions for all stages of the disease and for different patient types – all from a single source.

Osteoarthritis therapy with medi

1. Conservative therapy for osteoarthritis
For the conservative therapy of mild to severe medial or lateral gonarthrosis, the following medical aids from medi are used:
- Genumedi
- medi Soft OA light
- medi Soft OA
- M.3s OA
- M.4s OA comfort
2. Pre- and post-operative therapy for osteoarthritis
Preoperative care: When braces are used on a test basis (brace test for unicompartmental relief) before operation (e.g. before corrective osteotomy), both the surgeon and patient receive helpful information about the expected surgical result. This also allows for a better assessment of the postoperative pain reduction.

Postoperative care: After surgery dealing with cartilage, cartilage plastic surgery or meniscus refixation, the brace supports the surgical outcome: It unburdens and stabilises the knee.
- M.3s OA
- M.4s OA comfort
Patient information & self-management

As a osteoarthritis patient, you can do a great deal to reduce pain and improve the treatment outcomes. The keyword here is self-management: Be active in dealing with the disease. For example, eat a healthy diet, lose weight sustainably and take regular physical activity.

Tips for self-management
