GARMENT FOR A HAND

A compression garment for a hand. The garment includes a body portion dimensioned to wrap at least partially around a hand of a user and includes a trimmable portion. An aperture of the body portion is disposed opposite the trimmable portion wherein the aperture is configured for receiving a thumb of the user. A plurality of bands are extended from an edge of the body portion in communication with the trimmable portion. Each band can be trimmable to a plurality of sizes (e.g. length, width, or the like) and can include a proximal end connected to the body portion and a distal free end having a fastener.

Orthopedic device

An orthopedic system includes an orthopedic device having ankle and foot receiving portions and defining a posterior aspect and an anterior aspect opposite the posterior aspect. A stability part positioned on the posterior aspect of the orthopedic device and sized and configured to avoid disruption of a gait of a patient wearing the orthopedic device. The stability part protrudes from the posterior aspect and defines an axis extending in a transverse direction across a width of the orthopedic device and at least one point of rotation about which the orthopedic device is rotatable along the axis. The at least one point of rotation is selectively positioned along the axis so that when the posterior aspect of the orthopedic device is resting on a resting surface the stability part stabilizes the orthopedic device against rotation on the resting surface about the at least one point of rotation.

CUSHIONED SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR HEEL ULCER PREVENTION

A cushioned support device includes a pad for supporting a portion of a patient's leg, a securing system coupled to the pad and configured to secure the portion of the patient's leg to the pad, and a connecting member coupled to the pad and configured to couple the cushioned support device to a second cushioned support device.

Systems and methods for controlling and monitoring inflatable perfusion enhancement apparatus for mitigating contact pressure

Introduced here are methods, apparatuses, and systems for mitigating the contact pressure applied to a human body by the surface of an object, such as a chair, bed, or table. A pressure-mitigation apparatus can include a series of chambers whose pressure can be individually varied. When placed between a patient and a contact surface, a controller can vary the contact pressure on the human body by controllably inflating one or more chambers, deflating one or more chambers, or any combination thereof. By monitoring the pressure in each chamber over time, the controller can also gain an enhanced understanding of movement(s) performed by the human body when positioned on the pressure-mitigation apparatus.

Pressure bandage

A pressure bandage comprising an elastic band having a first end comprising a pocket member and a second end that is removably attachable to the first end. An inflatable bladder is placed in the pocket member and provides a substantially uniform pressure over a wound area when the band is placed on a patient and the bladder is inflated. The bladder is connected to a tube element which is used to inflate the bladder to the desired pressure. The elastic band may include a shoulder strap and may wrap over a patient's shoulder, across the patient's chest, and under the patient's opposite arm. The bottom side of the elastic band (facing the patient) may be made of a soft, absorptive material, and the bottom side of the pocket member may include an expandable mesh.
