PELVIS CORRECTION EQUIPMENT FORMED OF COMBINATION OF PELVIS BELT AND PRESSING CORRECTION EQUIPMENT
A pelvis correction equipment includes: a pelvis belt for tightening for fastening a lower abdomen of a body, the pelvis belt being used for correcting opening of or strain on a joint portion between a sacral bone and an iliac bone which form a pelvis; a pressing position mark indicated on a surface of the pelvis belt for indicating a plurality of pressing correction portions; and a pressing correction equipment configured to be operated in such a manner that the pressing correction equipment presses the plurality of pressing correction portions along the pressing position mark of the pelvis belt mounted on the lower abdomen by fastening by way of the pelvis belt.
SYSTEMS AND DEVICES FOR PROVIDING LIFT ASSISTANCE FOR A SURGICAL PROCEDURE
Systems and devices oriented in a compact manner provide lift assistance to a spar of a surgery table for hip, leg-related surgeries, or generally lower limb related orthopedic procedures. The compact device does not impede the radiolucency of the spar below the patient's hip, trochanter, or femur.
AMBULATING ABDUCTOR PHYSICAL REHABILITATION WEDGE
A wearable physical rehabilitation device configured to separate the thighs of a subject to promote proper posture of the pelvis while walking is provided. The device comprises a supporting belt fitted around the subject's waist, a 3D wedge-like PU-foam structure arranged between the subject's thighs, a saddle-shaped structure for receiving the subject's buttocks, and a hollow control handle arranged anteriorly relative to the subject's body. The 3D wedge-like structure has a hole and is attached to the belt by a pair of ascending straps each passing through the hole. Each of a pair of lateral straps passes through the hole and attaches the 3D wedge-like structure to and around one of the thighs. The handle has one pair of descending straps extending therefrom and attaching to the saddle-shaped structure and another pair of ascending straps extending therefrom and attached to each other behind the subject's neck.
METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR JOINT DISTRACTION
A method of treating a patient's joint having opposing joint surfaces includes providing an elongate member having a proximal end, a distal end and an expandable member near the distal end. The expandable member is positioned in the joint between the joint surfaces and expanded so as to separate the joint surfaces away from one another into a distracted position. The joint is manipulated while in the distracted position so that the joint is distracted and in flexion. A diagnostic or therapeutic procedure is then performed on the joint while maintaining the joint in the flexed and distracted position.

Hip Brace Kit
A hip brace kit includes a first assembly for retention against a limb, which has a first base and a first arm terminating at first rings. A second assembly includes a second base and a second arm terminating at a second ring. A third assembly includes a third base and a third arm terminating at a third ring. A pivot assembly includes an upper cup and a lower cup defining a pivot housing. In a first arrangement, the first and second assemblies are mounted in the pivot assembly to enable unrestricted pivotal movement with respect to each other and to disable adduction and abduction with respect to each other. In a second arrangement, the first and third assemblies are mounted in the pivot assembly to disable unrestricted pivotal movement with respect to each other and to enable adduction and abduction with respect to each other.
PELVIS FIXING DEVICE AND MOTION ASSISTANCE APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME
Provided is a pelvis fixing device including a rear fixing module including a driving module mounting portion, the rear fixing portion configured to enclose a side surface and a rear surface of a waist of a user, and a front fixing module including a soft layer and a hard layer configured to enclose a front surface of the waist of the user, wherein the hard layer is connected to the rear fixing module to form a closed loop around the waist of the user.
Pelvis correction equipment formed of combination of pelvis belt and pressing correction equipment
A pelvis correction equipment includes: a pelvis belt for tightening for fastening a lower abdomen of a body, the pelvis belt being used for correcting opening of or strain on a joint portion between a sacral bone and an iliac bone which form a pelvis; a pressing position mark indicated on a surface of the pelvis belt for indicating a plurality of pressing correction portions; and a pressing correction equipment configured to be operated in such a manner that the pressing correction equipment presses the plurality of pressing correction portions along the pressing position mark of the pelvis belt mounted on the lower abdomen by fastening by way of the pelvis belt.
SLIDING ASSEMBLY AND MOTION ASSISTANCE APPARATUS INCLUDING THE SAME
A sliding assembly may include a supporting frame having a proximal end and a distal end, a sliding frame partially inserted to the supporting frame, and a supporting member disposed between the supporting frame and the sliding frame to prevent the supporting frame from directly contacting the sliding frame, wherein the sliding frame is configured to move relative to the supporting frame.
Clubfoot orthotic
Devices and methods for treating clubfoot are disclosed.
