09968475 · 2018-05-15 ·

The present disclosure is generally directed to systems, devices, and methods for compressing the pelvis with alternating compressive air compartments by encircling the hip region of the patient. In some examples, a device may be applied to a person with a traumatic pelvic injury. A main body may include a strong flexible material such as neoprene and may have the general shape of a wide belt or pelvic girdle. The interior or exterior aspect of the binder may be composed of one or many straps that extend from one end of the binder and are looped through buckles on the other end of the binder and may therefore allow for tightening of the binder upon itself for compression. The end of the strap may contain a fastening device to affix the end of the strap to itself after the strap has been looped through the buckle.

An cast inflatable bladder liner providing air-flow and massage over a fractured limb is introduced to eliminate itching, infection, moisture and bacterial buildup on an injured limb. Fluctuating air-pressure nipples on the bladder-skin surface promote massaging the skin while also ventilating the injury during cast placement. Air pressure is sourced by manual bulb squeezing or electrical power to mechanical pump on demand pressured air. The inflatable bladder has 4 edges and 2 sides and controlled valves for providing two modes of operation, one which provides air-tight seals in static mode and another mode which allows for air-flow over the skin surface.
