Product Information

DermaSaver Shin Protectors are sleeve-like loose tubes worn on lower leg over the shin and calf. They are soft and comfortable to wear day and night.

They reduce the impact felt by the knees from a fall, especially when falling directly onto the knees. In doing so, they protect the kneecap (the patella) from injuries such as fractures; However, the 95% confidence interval for this ratio had a range of 0.7 to 7.2. Since the lower end of this interval was below 1, the increase in the risk of injury could not be regarded as statistically significant. 2019 Nature StudyHowever, keep in mind that tape has to be applied each time before the activity, while “a sleeve simply needs to be pulled up and you’re ready to go,” he says. DermaSaver Shin and Knee Protector has been designed to loosely cover and protect the skin on the shin, calf and knee, allowing ample access to air flow. DermaSaver Shin and Knee Protector is especially helpful to people confined to wheelchairs as it protects the entire exposed area of the knee and the shin without preventing ventilation and the beneficial air flow reaching the skin. More about DermaSaver Shin Protectors Please note: Selected models and sizes of the DermaSavers are available from the NHS Supply Chain in England and Wales and the NHS National Services Scotland in Scotland.

Another risk of excessive knee pad wear is that of a decrease in knee strength due to atrophy of knee muscles. This weakening can itself increase the risk of injuries such as knee sprains or strains.

Features and Benefits As mentioned above, excessive use of knee pads may interfere with blood circulation and/or cause atrophy of knee muscles. So knee pad use should be restricted to those occasions when there is a risk of trauma to the knees or when the body weight will be borne by the knees for a long period.

Knee sleeves’ low profile also makes them easier to wear than traditional knee braces, according to Dr. Greg Minnis, a physical therapist at Excel Physical Therapy in New Jersey. The material is made to stretch slightly, so after time, the elastic properties may wear out or the stitching may begin to come apart,” Minnis says. People who spend extensive periods with their knees on the ground bearing body weight can increase their exposure to injuries like knee bursitis if they do not use knee pads. They are also at risk of serious long term medical conditions such as knee osteoarthritis that may eventually lead to the need for knee replacement. By reducing the risk of undergoing major expensive and disruptive surgery like a knee replacement, knee pads can prove to be an extremely cost effective investment in knee health. They make for more comfortable working conditions, especially for workers whose jobs require them to spend extended periods on their knees. This would include jobs such as carpet laying, gardening, roofing, tiling, etc.DermaSavers are fully machine washable at up to 95° C and can be air dried or tumble dried at high temperature for speed and convenience. The fabric will not crumble, crust or lose its integrity due to washing and tumble drying. Alternatively, DermaSavers can be air dried, if speed is not crucial. DermaSavers must not be dried on hot radiators.

Alternatively, you can also use the Kneela as a gardening kneeling pad to support your knees during domestic activities.

This comfortable Kneeling Pad provides a cushioning for caregivers who spend a long time kneeling to support patients. You can use the pad on any ground surface, inside or out, as a clean and comfortable base to protect and insulate your knees while working. Whether you work at ground level in a medical setting or outside cars to help patients out of vehicles, this pad will make your life easier.Another good option for knee support is a knee strap, a patella brace (a smaller product that only wraps around the leg below your kneecap), or a pain relief patch. You can also opt for ace wraps or elastic tubular bandages. A knee brace is a more supportive alternative to a knee sleeve. Taping, which involves wrapping the knee in special tape to limit unwanted movement and support the joint, is another alternative, Minnis says. Knee pads are protective padding devices that are designed to safeguard against impact and to cushion your knees while they are bearing your body weight. To be effective, a knee pad must remain firmly in its intended position while in use.
