The present disclosure is related to systems and methods for orthosis design. The method includes obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) model associated with a subject. The method includes obtaining one or more reference images associated with the subject. The method includes determining, based on the 3D model and the one or more reference images, orthosis design data for the subject. The orthosis design data may be used to determine an orthosis for the subject.

The invention is a method of designing and manufacturing a 3D printed prosthetic socket or a standard prosthetic socket with a 3D printed distal end, comprising a step of obtaining physical data about a patient with a residual limb and a step of creating a structural design of the 3D printed prosthetic socket or standard prosthetic socket with the 3D printed distal end. The step of creating the structural design of the 3D printed prosthetic socket (3) or standard prosthetic socket with the 3D printed distal end comprises a step of determining the bulk density of the structure of the prosthetic socket between a shaped area for positioning a linking part of the liner and a distal planar area for mounting a linking adapter of the socket directly proportional to at least one of the data from a set including at least weight, patient's degree of activity, length of the residual limb, length of the prosthesis, size of the prosthetic foot, and angle between the axis of the limb and the axis of the prosthesis.

A hand orthosis for bending and/or stretching at least one finger of a patient's hand, comprising a force-introducing device fastened to a splint, which is coupled with at least one finger segment paired with the finger of the patient's hand, wherein the at least one finger segment comprises a plurality of modular members interconnected in an articulated manner. The modular members each have at least one bayonet link on a first front side and at least one bayonet hook, corresponding to the bayonet link, on a second front side for the formation of a bayonet connection between adjacent modular members providing a bayonet joint. In addition, the invention relates to a modular member for using in a hand orthosis and a method of producing a hand orthosis.

A method for manufacturing an orthopedic product for a body part of a patient is disclosed, the method comprising the following steps: a) providing body-part data containing information about an internal structure of the body part, b) detecting a current line of vision from which a user of the method sees the body part, c) displaying the body part data from the current line of vision by means of the display device so that the user sees the body part and the body part data superimposed, d) generating production data for the orthopedic device on the basis of the displayed data and e) providing an orthopedic product manufactured on the basis of the production data.

The invention is a 3D printed prosthetic socket for a residual limb consisting of a 3D printed shell. The 3D printed prosthetic socket comprises a distal end adapted for linking the interconnecting adapter of the socket and a proximal end with an opening adapted for inserting the limb. The 3D printed shell comprises a first housing of the socket comprising an inner wall, wherein between the first housing and the second housing, there is an air gap. The distal end adapted for linking an interconnecting adapter of the socket, the first housing and the second housing are made of single 3D printed part, wherein the first housing comprises an elastic region comprising set of shaped openings, and the first housing is connected with the second housing through a reinforcing structure composed of ribs.

A method for reducing motion of a skeletal structure in a limb towards a wall of an interface is described. The interface comprises a plurality of compression areas that are longitudinally-shaped and oriented longitudinally along the length of limb. The method comprises selecting, during a process of creating the interface, a compression level for the compression areas that compresses soft tissue against the skeletal structure. The method also comprises donning the interface over the limb to apply a plurality of compressive forces that is sufficient to aid in suspension of the interface on the limb and reduce motion of the skeletal structure toward a wall of the interface.

Disclosed herein are a method and system for producing a digital model of a customised device, comprising the steps of: importing a first digital file of a base part; importing a second digital file of a target shape; determining a warping interpolation function based on source point positions associated with the base part and target point positions associated with the target shape; and applying the warping interpolation function to the points of said base part to generate a model of said customised device.

A lower extremity prosthetic socket, according to some embodiments. The lower extremity prosthetic socket includes a shell having variable thickness along a longitudinal length of the shell. The lower extremity prosthetic socket is configured to provide stability for a residual limb of a user when worn by the user. The lower extremity prosthetic socket is configured to distribute forces. The shell is configured to conform to an anatomical structure of the residual limb of the user.

A protective device for an upper extremity post-operative residual limb of a user. The protective device includes a multi-section shell having a shape that corresponds to an anatomical structure of the upper extremity post-operative residual limb of the user. The protective device also includes a hinge coupled with a first section and a second section of the multi-section shell, the hinge configured to facilitate relative rotation of the first section and the second section to transition the protective device between an open configuration and a closed configuration. The multi-section shell is configured to receive one or more attachments to increase functionality of the upper extremity post-operative residual limb of the user.

A prosthetic device includes an internal frame assembled from multiple longitudinal members and multiple transverse members that are substantially planar in character and are arranged to be joined together. A medially arranged opening is defined in each transverse member, and is substantially registered with openings of adjacent transverse members to form a longitudinal passage, such as may be useful to receive an actuator and/or other items. At least some transverse members differ from one another in one or more of shape, length, or width. A covering member may be provided over the internal frame. Rear-facing gaps in transverse members may receive one or more elements such as dampers, batteries, or the like.
