 Objective:We assessed the lack of efficacy of knee sleeves and developed an improved product for patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee.

 Methods:Knee sleeves with a medial pad (knee sleeves with pad group) and simple knee sleeves without a pad (sleeves without pad group) were prepared, and 56 outpatients with knee OA were treated with each of the types of knee sleeves for 4 weeks.

 Results:Pain during squatting was significantly improved in the knee sleeves with pad group in comparison with the sleeves without pad group.

 Conclusion:In deep flexion the knees may stretch the soft tissue surrounding the knee joint and decrease stiffness. The efficacy of wearing a medial pad while wearing knee sleeves in patients with knee OA is related to maintaining the range of flexion of the knee joint.
