An orthosis for stabilizing a joint has a joint rail having a first and a second rail portion which can be pivoted relative to each other about a joint axle. The orthosis has a pressure member which can be adjusted by a relative pivoting of the two rail portions about the joint axle in the direction towards and counter to the joint to be stabilized. One of the two rail portions has a cam disc, and the other of the two rail portions has a rotor which is guided on the cam disc, wherein the cam disc or the rotor is axially fixed in position on the correction pad.

Orthosis and corrective joint

An orthopedic brace system for bracing a joint with a dimensionally stable, flexible base body, which can be placed around the members adjoining the joint and has closure devices by way of which the base body can be fixed to the members adjoining the joint. A dimensionally stable outer frame extending over the joint is removably attached to the base body by way of adjustable fastening members, wherein the outer frame is braced on the members adjoining the joint.
