An orthopedic device is provided for treating complications of the hip and has means for trochanter compression, pelvis support, lumbar compression, variously directed straps, and thigh support. The trochanter compression and an internal/external rotation strap provide pain relief through compression and skin protection, unloading of joints through compression and sealing, and unloading by load transfer. Means for adjustably dosing of straps enables pain management and ease of use.

Orthopedic device for treating complications of the hip

A sleeve has a tubular body formed from an elasticized textile and has first and second ends. The first end defines a locking cuff having a tacky band extending about an exterior surface of the sleeve; a non-tacky band located adjacent to and extending distally from the tacky band; and a receiving band located adjacent to and extending distally from the non-tacky band. The textile body further defines a central portion adjacent to and extending distally from the receiving band to the second end. The central portion includes an anatomical band arranged to contour to the anatomy of a user having at least one different elastic property different from an elastic property of the central portion outside of the anatomical band.

Sleeve and method for use with orthopedic device

An orthopedic device is arranged as a lightweight ankle-foot orthosis providing dynamic support for drop foot or related disorders requiring dorsiflexion. The orthopedic device includes a main support adapted to secure about a lower leg, a strap assembly having a first portion coupling to the main support, and a second portion arranged to be drawn therefrom, and an anchor for receiving and attaching to the second portion of the strap assembly. The location of the anchor along a foot component enables increased medial-lateral control, and the arrangement of the strap assembly permits dorsiflexion during swing phase of a user's gait.

Orthopedic device for treating drop foot and method for using the same

An orthopedic device comprising a first shell, a second shell, and a hinge connecting to the first and second shells. A first strap having a first end slidably connects to the first shell and a second end removably anchors to the second shell. An overlay extends over a portion of the first shell and forms a clearance with the first shell into which the first end of the first strap extends. Portions of the overlay secure to the first shell outside of the clearance.

Orthopedic device for unloading a knee

An orthopedic device comprises a hip plate, a first strut defining an anatomical curvature between first and second ends, and a second strut having a first end slidably received by the hip plate. A hinge couples the first and second struts to one another at the first end of the first strut and the second end of the second strut, and is arranged to provide adjustable abduction ranging from a plurality of angles. A thigh cuff connects to the second end of the first strut.
