An orthopedic walking boot includes a housing configured to encompass at least a user's foot, a mechanically adjustable ramp insert including a ramp surface and disposed in the housing, an adjusting mechanism configured to adjust an elevation angle of the ramp surface, and a mechanically adjustable lift configured to cause the mechanically adjustable ramp insert to descend within the housing as the ramp surface is elevated such that vertical displacement of the user's foot caused by elevation of the ramp surface is substantially attenuated. Related methods are also provided.

The present invention discloses a surgical traction system with a hand gripped tension adjustment device that slidably mounts onto a boom structure. When activated the tension adjustment device moves down the boom structure and incrementally adjusts the tension in a traction rope. The boom structure attaches to a bracket assembly that mounts onto the short end of a surgical table.

A non-fixed shoulder brace is provided comprising: an affected shoulder support which is supported on an affected shoulder of a wearer; a waist support coupled to the wearer's waist; an affected arm mounting part in which the wearer's affected arm is inserted and which is supported by means of an affected shoulder strap member from the affected shoulder support; and an affected upper limb exercise assistance apparatus coupled to both ends of the waist support and disposed between the wearer's waist and the affected arm mounting part.

A leg pulling device has a traction device and a supporting device. At least one force or at least one pressure which is exerted on a patient by the supporting device upon the actuation of the traction device can be measured.

A multifunctional traction and bone fixation device relates to the technical field of medical devices. Two traction clamping plates serve as a base. The front of each of the two traction clamping plates defines a traction nail. The middle portion of the clamping plate is arranged with a positioning and pressurizing screw. The rear end of the clamp plate is arranged with a traction handle screw. The clamping plate is arranged with a plurality of auxiliary fixation pin holders and auxiliary fixation pins. Heads of two traction nails are injected in opposite directions into a lower portion of a fracture site to determine a fixation position. Rear ends of the two traction clamping plates extend along the thigh direction to be weighted-pulled.

An orthosis (1) for distracting a human digit that includes a support (6) for removably fitting to a hand or foot and a mounting element (16) for attaching to the distal end of the digit. The orthosis (1) includes an adjustable member (10, 12, 14) extending between the support (6) and the mounting element (16), the adjustable member (10, 12, 14) being physically separate to the mounting element (16). The adjustable member (10, 12, 14) releasably engages with the mounting element (16) and is mounted to the support (6). The adjustable member (10, 12, 14) is movable with the support (6) and the mounting element (16) so to increase the distance between the support (6) and the mounting element (16), which causes the adjustable member (10, 12, 14) to exert a biasing force between the support (6) and the mounting element (16) so to distract the digit.
