Abstract

An orthopedic elbow brace having a forearm strut hinged to an upper arm strut, with two cuffs that are attached and slidable to the forearm strut, and a third cuff attached to the upper arm strut. First and second rotatable spools are positioned at the strut pivot. A lace, cable or wire interconnects the forearm and/or upper arm struts to the first spool, and another lace, cable or wire interconnects the forearm and/or upper arm struts to the second spool. Rotating the first and second spools tensions the laces, cables or wires to set an angular position between the forearm and upper arm struts corresponding to range of motion (ROM) limits for the brace. Attachment straps further secure the cuffs and the brace to the wearer's arm.
