A compression garment for a limb is disclosed. The garment can include a body portion and a spine portion. Each of the body and spine portions can have a plurality of bands (e.g. bands for adjusting tension of the garment). The spine portion can be releasably attached onto the body portion such that the spine portion is positionable at different locations on the body portion to adjust a width of the garment. The bands of the body portion and/or of the spine portion can be trimmable and include a detachable fastener, whereby as a result the band can be caused to move to a plurality of different positions to adjust the garment to a plurality of different sized limbs (e.g. different sized feet).

The invention relates to a knee orthosis with an upper leg frame for arranging on an upper leg and a lower leg frame for arranging on a lower leg, wherein the lower leg frame is arranged on the upper leg frame such that it can be swivelled about a first swivel axis by means of at least one joint, and a calf pad for mounting on a calf, wherein the knee orthosis comprises at least one elastic bearing element that is attached in such a way that the bearing element is tensioned when the knee orthosis is mounted and, in this state, presses the calf pad either directly or indirectly against a calf of the wearer of the knee orthosis.

The present disclosure relates to a support system for patients recovering from medical procedures, including from total knee replacement surgery. The disclosed system may include a foot support unit which supports a patient's feet, where the foot support may have one or more leg grooves of a tapered height. The foot support may be placed in a patient's bed. Additionally hip support wedges may be placed beneath a patient's hip, where the hip supports provide the benefit of counteracting a leg's natural tendency to rotate outwards. The disclosed foot support and hip wedges promote proper alignment and in that way provide comfort and assist in recovery.

A compression garment for a limb is disclosed. The garment can include a body portion and a spine portion. Each of the body and spine portions can have a plurality of bands (e.g. bands for adjusting tension of the garment).
