A Dynamic Brace For Dogs
We normally wouldn’t even think about the possibility of leg braces for dogs, but the A-TRAC DYNAMIC BRACE has been a “miracle” since its invention by a caring surgeon. The founder and CEO of WoundWear, Inc., Dr. Spatt, is a physician who specializes in human reconstructive ankle and foot surgery. His interest in developing veterinary products arises from his background in biomechanics and surgery and his true love of animals.
Leg braces for injuries to the cruciate ligament bring relief from the pain caused by a tear or rupture of the CCL, which is the cranial cruciate ligament often called the ACL as in humans, that stops the femur and tibia from rubbing against one another. The affected leg loses stability because the bones move back and forth freely on top of one another instead of being held in place as if with a rubber band. That causes inflammation, friction, a possible meniscal injury, lameness, and eventual arthritis.
Acute injury is usually associated with trauma and most often is due to improper rotation of the knee and hyper extension because of the dog using a jerking motion to free himself or herself, a misstep off a curb, stepping into a divot, becoming stuck, or jumping. You must know this for taking care of your dog.
Chronic injury is usually associated with age-related degenerative ligament changes, disease, excess weight/obesity, and conformation of the knee joint as occurs in certain large breed dogs due to the way their back legs are formed.
Created as a hopeful alternative to the need for surgery, the brace is constructed of Neoprene and Lycra durable lightweight and soft materials that, along with a harness, give support to stabilize the knee from any further injury. Even if it becomes necessary to do repair surgery to the cruciate ligament, the leg brace can still be used for stablilization and to prevent more injury after the surgery.
The ACL can actually heal with the brace because the brace stabilizes the knee from abnormal movement at the knee joint until scar tissue can develop.
WoundWear Inc. has designed the A-TRAC DYNAMIC BRACE, which is a state-of-the-art, easy to use, and comfortable dog leg brace specifically for the cruciate ligament-related injuries. It is the first anti-translational and biomechanically correct cruciate brace for the lucky dogs who get to wear it.
At WoundWear, Inc., they believe that pet owners provide the same compassion to their pet’s health care as they would to any human family member, so their mission is to apply a humanistic approach to their product development.
