An orthosis having a strap arrangement which is designed to engage on an arm section at the elbow or adjacent to the elbow of the arm extending from the first shoulder joint, which is to be immobilized, in order to fix the elbow frontally on the body of the patient. The strap arrangement has a first strap section which is provided for at least partially looping around the arm section. The strap arrangement has a second strap section which is provided for at least partially looping around the arm section, and is incorporated into the strap arrangement such that, in the fitted state of the orthosis, the second strap section exerts on the arm section a second force which has at least a second component running parallel to the sagittal plane of the patient and horizontally.

Orthosis for fixing a shoulder joint

An orthosis for fastening to a human hand for immobilizing the carpometacarpal joint and metacarpophalangeal joint of the thumb of the hand has a stiff body which can be of multi-piece or single-piece design. The rigidity of the body enables the latter to support, to stabilize and to immobilize the hand and dimensional stability is provided such that the body can be placed in a simple manner with a defined shape onto the hand.

Thumb orthosis

A closure is shown and described, preferably for an orthosis, which has a belt assembly, having a first closure part () and a second closure part (), which can be releasably connected to one another, wherein the first and the second closure parts () have connecting means for belts of the belt assembly, wherein the first closure part () has a pin (), wherein the second closure part () has a connection end () and a coupling end (), and between the connection end () and the coupling end () a guide track () extending in a closure plane is provided, which extends from an entrance opening () to a guide track end (), wherein the pin () has a first section () and a second section (), wherein the dimensions of the first section () perpendicular to the direction of extension of the pin () correspond to the dimensions of the guide track () in the closure plane at the guide track end (), and wherein the dimensions of the second section () perpendicular to the direction of extension of the pin () are greater than the dimensions of the guide track () at the guide track end (), so that the second section () restricts a movement of the pin () relative to the second closure part () perpendicular to the closure plane.

Fastener

An ankle brace having a flexible main body that is designed to surround a human leg from the ankle from the lower leg to the midfoot, and having a fixing belt that can be wound around the main body that is affixed, with the first end, to the lateral section of the main body adjacent to its top end, and, with the second end, to the medial section of the main body adjacent to its top end. The ankle brace makes it possible to easily adjust a certain degree of pronation and at the same time be comfortable to wear. One of the first and second end is fixedly or releasably connected to the main body in a fixed position relative to the main body, and that the other of the first and second end is releasably connected to the main body.
