The present invention is generally directed to systems, devices and methods in the area of chiropractic therapy. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a traction therapy system. The system includes: a bench, including an adjustable back rest that is adjustable to every angle from 90 degrees horizontal to 90 degrees vertical, wherein the bench is in contact with a frame, wherein the frame includes one or more mechanisms by which the bench is contacted with the frame and one adjustable angle unilateral traction arm that adjusts from 55 degrees to +55 degrees rotating around the x-axis, and wherein the one adjustable angle unilateral traction arm is connected to a winch mounting arm, and wherein a winch is connected to the winch mounting arm, and wherein the winch is operably connected to a crossbar, and wherein a harness that is capable of fitting underneath a person is connected to the crossbar.

A distraction frame for use with a surgical table, wherein the surgical table comprises a base for positioning on a floor, the distraction frame comprising: a table mount for fixation to the base of the surgical table; at least one horizontal strut mounted to the table mount; at least one vertical strut mounted to the at least one horizontal strut; and at least one distraction mechanism mounted to the at least one vertical strut, wherein the at least one distraction mechanism is configured for connection to a limb of a patient and for applying a distraction force to the limb of the patient; wherein the table mount is configured to transfer to the floor a force moment imposed on the table mount when the at least one distraction mechanism applies a distraction force to a limb of a patient.

A cervical traction assembly for use with a patient support apparatus includes an adjustment carriage track member including a connecting bracket assembly that releasably connects to a mount support member of the patient support apparatus. The adjustment track member includes a track body including a pair of opposing sidewalls that are spaced-apart from each other to define an elongated channel therebetween. Each sidewall includes a guide track that extends along a length of the respective sidewall. A rope angle adjustment carriage is located within the channel. The rope angle adjustment carriage includes a first track engagement member that is received by one of the guide tracks of one of the sidewalls and a second track engagement member that is received by another of the guide tracks of another of the sidewalls. The first track engagement member has a locked configuration that inhibits movement of the rope angle adjustment carriage along the channel and an unlocked configuration that allows movement of the rope angle adjustment carriage along the channel.

Apparatus for distracting the hip joint of a patient, said apparatus comprising: a perineal post for engagement with a leg of the patient, said perineal post comprising a first portion and a second portion, wherein said first portion is configured for mounting to a table, and further wherein said second portion is movable relative to said first portion so as to change the geometry of the perineal post relative to a patient supported on the table.

Monocortical pin (1) for an external fixator for temporary and/or permanent fixing applications for treating bone fractures and connecting two or more bone fragments together, comprising an elongated cylindrical stem (2) which extends along a longitudinal axis (X) and a conical portion (3) with a tip having an external thread for inserting the pin (1) inside a bone; where said elongated cylindrical stem (2) has a flattened surface (2a) which lies along a reference plane (A) parallel to the longitudinal axis (X) and said conical portion (3) with the tip has an overall length, measured along the longitudinal axis, equal to the diameter (d) of the stem (2) +20% of said diameter (d); said monocortical pin (1) is characterized in that the conical portion (3) comprises a tip (31) which has a centring zone (33) which extends longitudinally over a length equal to 6-8% of the diameter (d) of the stem (2), and a threaded portion (32); moreover the conical portion (3) comprises two base cones (3a and 3b) having two different angles of conicity, a first base cone (3a) in a distal position with respect to the elongated cylindrical stem (2) of the monocortical pin and a second base cone (3b) in a proximal position with respect to the elongated cylindrical stem (2) of the monocortical pin; said first base cone (3a) having an angle of conicity of 13; said second base cone (3b) having an angle of conicity of 26.

A wrist tower attachment for an arm stabilizer device is configured for modular attachment on a support arm secured in a rail clamp mounted on a rail of an operating table. The wrist tower attachment includes a wrist tower base and a wrist tower post protruding upwardly from the wrist tower base. The support arm includes a stabilizer bar having a distal bar end, and the wrist tower attachment is secured onto the distal bar end. In some embodiments, the wrist tower attachment includes a female axial socket shaped to receive the male distal bar end. A traction bar is positioned on the wrist tower post and protrudes radially from the wrist tower post. A tension gauge is disposed on the traction bar in some embodiments.

A clamp system includes a first clamp, a second clamp, and a fixation rod. The first clamp at least partially defines a first jaw for receiving a support rod and a central opening. The second clamp at least partially defines a second jaw for receiving a pin and a central opening. At least one of the first clamp and the second clamp comprises a boss for rotatably positioning the first clamp relative to the second clamp. The fixation rod is received in the central openings of the first clamp and the second clamp for selectively securing a position of the first clamp relative to the second clamp.

An off-loading wrist brace featuring a linear configuration, a split linear configuration, or a glove configuration with a thumb hole, pisiform hole, purlicue saddle, and closure components. The brace compresses to reduce repetitive movement of the carpal ligament while reducing compression of the pisiform to reduce injury and pain. The brace is removably affixed by placing the thumb through the thumb hole, wrapping the brace body around the wrist to attach the closure component at the tapered distal end to the closure component at the rounded proximal end.
