1. Introduction
1.1. Foreword
Functional braces are used to relieve and
stabilize the joints and tendons following
injury and surgery. Their function is to protect
joints and tendons during rehabilitation and
prevent them from becoming stiff.
Our braces ensure protection and guidance
during the healing process and allow gradual
controlled return to full physiological mobility.
1.2. Customer information

User Instructions carefully and accurately
before using the brace. The instructions, notes

operation and use of the device. If anything
in the User Instructions is not clear, or any
instructions, operating procedures or safety
information is not fully understandable, please
contact the appropriate specialist retailer or
albrecht GmbH directly, before you use the
brace. This particularly applies to the safety
instructions.
1.3. Mode of operation

treatment of the elbow.
