APPARATUS AND SYSTEM FOR EXTERNAL ORTHOPEDIC DEVICES
A stabilization device can determine a condition of a human foot and can include a body, a pad, and a sensor. The body can be coupleable to a human foot. The pad can be coupleable to a distal portion of the body, and the pad can be configured to interface with a walking surface. The sensor can be securable to one of the body and the pad and the sensor can be configured to produce a sensor signal as a function of a sensed condition of the stabilization device.
Therapy boot with pockets for ice pack and compression bladder
The present invention comprises a therapy boot for treatment of the ankle or lower leg. The therapy boot comprises a hard outer shell having an open anterior portion, a base portion, a posterior portion, two oppositely disposed side portions, and a pocket with an opening provided in each of the side portions. The therapy boot also comprises an air bladder comprising two inflatable chambers, a corresponding one of the two inflatable chambers being disposed on an inside of each of the side portions. Respective gel packs are also provided which are adapted to be inserted into one of the respective openings of the pockets in between the air bladder and at least one of the lower leg or the ankle. The gel packs are pressed against at least one of the lower leg and the ankle by the corresponding inflatable chamber of the air bladder.
SURGICAL SHOE FOR RECEIVING AN ORTHOTIC INSERT
A surgical shoe for receiving an orthotic insert is disclosed. The surgical shoe includes a shoe element configured to be worn on a wearer's foot. The shoe element includes a lower section and an upper section. The lower section is configured to be positioned below a wearer's foot, and the upper section is configured to couple the lower section to a wearer's foot. A looped body is configured to be positioned within the surgical shoe and to surround a circumference of an orthotic insert. A first attaching element couples a first surface of the looped body to an upward facing surface of the lower section. A second attaching element is configured to couple a second surface of the looped body to the upward facing surface. A third attaching element is configured to couple an orthotic insert to the upward facing surface of lower section of the shoe element.
OVERMOLDING FOR AN ORTHOPEDIC WALKING BOOT
A method of manufacturing an orthopedic walking boot, comprising providing a base configured to support a user's foot and receive a support assembly configured to support the user's lower leg; and overmolding an outer sole to the base.
OVERMOLDING FOR AN ORTHOPEDIC WALKING BOOT
An orthopedic walking boot including a base to support a user's foot; a support assembly extending from the base to support the user's lower leg; and an outer sole overmolded to the base.
OUTSOLE FOR ORTHOPEDIC DEVICE
An outsole for an orthopedic device includes a heel part, a forefoot part, and a mid-foot part separating the heel part from the forefoot part. A longitudinal axis extends in a longitudinal direction between an anterior end of the forefoot part and a posterior end of the heel part. A transverse axis intersects the longitudinal axis and extends in a transverse direction between a lateral edge of the outsole and a medial edge of the outsole. A bottom surface extends along the longitudinal axis and between the medial and lateral edges. The bottom surface defines an apex at the intersection of the longitudinal and transverse axes and at least one apical line passing through the apex and subtending an oblique angle to the longitudinal axis. The bottom surface curves through the apex and along the at least one apical line in both the longitudinal and transverse directions.
CIRCULAR FIXATOR SYSTEM AND METHOD
A device includes a plurality of rings. Each ring has a first face, a second face, and at least one slot defined by first and second interior edges of the ring on opposing sides of the slot. The at least one slot penetrates from the first face to the second face. The first face of each ring has a first recess adjacent the slot on the first edge and a second recess adjacent the slot on the second edge. A plurality of posts join each one of the plurality of rings to an adjacent one of the plurality of rings.
MEDICAL DEVICE AND METHOD OF USING
