Portable resetting device
The portable resetting device (100) has a portable pedestal (126) with telescoping sections (172/170). An underarm support (102) of adjustable height is mounted to a lower support (114) that is mounted to the pedestal (126). A traction structure (112) for transmitting forces to an injured arm is mounted to the lower support (114). A computer controllable motor (124) is operatively connected between the lower support (114) and the pedestal (108) so that an angle of tilt (116) may be placed thereon. An arm-holding plate (136) is attached to the lower support (114) and moves in a longitudinal direction by means of another computer controllable motor (118) operatively connected therebetween. An auxiliary arm support (122) is operatively connected by a computer controllable motor (120) on the lower support (114) and provides an additional force to the humerus head. A computer (302) controls the resetting device (100) and may communicate to a support computer (210) for treatment advice.

Body exercise device
A body exercise device includes a seat portion having a seat face, a pair of left and right airbags and a pair of front and rear airbags causing the seat face of the seat portion to be left-right and front-rear inclined, and an air supply unit that supplies pressurized air to the airbags. An air supply/discharge switching unit switches between supplying air to and discharging air from the airbags, and a pressure detection unit detects pressure in the airbags. A balance determination unit, in a process of supplying air to or discharging air from the right and left or front and rear airbags according to the switching operation of the air supply/discharge switching unit, determines the left-right or front-rear balance state of the user based on a difference in pressure change in the pair of left and right airbags or the pair of front and rear airbags.

Surgical Table with Moveable Perineal Post
A system for securing and manipulating a patient during a medical procedure comprises a support assembly coupled to a bed and configured to support a patient's leg. In addition the system comprises a rail coupled to the support assembly. The rail has a longitudinal axis, a first end, and a second end opposite the first end. In addition, the system comprises a perineal post movably mounted to the rail and oriented in a generally vertical direction. The post assembly is configured to move axially along the rail between a first position and a second position.

Apparatus for reducing closed fractures of the bones of the forearm and of the wrist with a closed technique
The present invention relates to a non-automated apparatus for manipulating and reducing closed fractures of the ulna and radius at the level of the wrist in children and adults, which consists of a bar (1) designed to be able to position the fractured limb on the bar, the other nine parts of the apparatus being custom assembled according to the measurement of the forearm or writ to be manipulated, enabling a single person to reduce the fracture using three phases or movements of the device. The design and materials from which the apparatus is made allow the mentioned fractures to be reduced and safety stops are provided to prevent any harm to the patient. The manipulation or reduction of the fractures on which the present apparatus is used must preferably be handled by a doctor specialised in traumatology and orthopaedics.

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.
DEVICES AND METHODS FOR MINIMALLY INVASIVE ACCESS INTO A JOINT
Devices and methods are disclosed for providing access to a central compartment of a hip joint. The devices can access the central compartment by distracting all or a portion of the labrum. The labrum can be distracted by advancing a device underneath the bottom edge of the labrum, and using the device to further distract the labrum. Some devices can move underneath the labrum to provide a gap for other devices to access the central compartment.
