Abstract: An adjustable knee brace for immobilization of a patient's knee in multiple adjustment angular inclinations for use in therapeutic applications. The knee brace has a sheet of cushion material which is adapted to be wrapped about and secured to the patient's leg by a pair of interconnected rigid upper and lower leg engagement plates and associated straps. The leg engagement plates are determined to be registerably engaged against the medial aspect of the leg above and below the knee and have adjustable articulated locking interconnecting hinge and pivot fitting assemblies extending therebetween for both saggital and frontal plane brace adjustment. An independent knee engagement pad provides knee stabilization in cooperation with leg engagement plates.

Abstract: An ankle and foot orthosis brace for use in supporting, immobilizing and correction of physical anomalies associated with a patient's ankle or foot. The brace is of a multi-part construction having a generally L-shaped configuration with a contoured upper leg support and a foot support portion interconnected by a multi-planar adjustment hinge and bi-lateral bearing assemblies there between. A foot pad with apertured tabs extending there from being part of the foot portion with adjustable fabric fasteners extending from the foot portion and the leg portion securing the brace to the patient's leg and foot.

Abstract: A leg restraint and alignment device for use with ankle and foot orthotic braces used in support and immobilization of a patient's ankle and foot. The device is of a contoured L-shaped configuration with a curved leg engagement portion extending from a bifurcated attachment portion. A leg pad is removably attached to the leg portion with an adjustable fabric strap fastener extending in oppositely disposed relation thereto about the patient's leg.

Abstract: A heel and forefoot plantar surface suspension device to be located to relieve pressure to ulcerated or injured forefoot and heel areas of a patient's foot. A contoured elongated pad of synthetic resin foam that has specific qualities of high-density shapeability characteristics is positioned on the foot engagement portion of the therapeutic foot enclosure that will selectively isolate and suspend alternately the plantar forefoot portion or plantar heel portion from direct contact engagement with opposing engagement surfaces.

Abstract: A therapeutic ankle and foot apparatus having a contact sensor mechanism. The sensor mechanism comprising a contact switch disposed between an ankle and foot apparatus and the heel of a patient's foot. The contact sensor mechanism determines any proximal contact with the patient's heel and communicates with an activation indicator that contact is present. The activation indicator may be visual and/or audible, and it may be positioned on the apparatus or at a remote location, communicating by wire or wireless telecommunication linkage.

Abstract: An ankle and foot therapeutic device for use in supporting a patient's foot and leg and selectively immobilizing the patient's ankle. The brace is of a multiple part configuration having a heel portion, leg portion and foot portion. The leg portion and foot portion being interconnected by a range of motion assembly. The range of motion assembly having a pivot point for adjustable plantar and dorsi flexion by the patient's foot. The heel portion having a configuration to provide a space with the patient's heel.

Abstract: An ankle and foot orthosis brace for use in supporting an immobilization of a patient's ankle and foot. The brace is of a multi-part L-shaped configuration with a contoured leg support portion and a foot portion interconnected by an incrementally hinge and lateral bearing assembly therebetween. A foot pad with an apertured tab extends therefrom and is part of the foot portion with adjustable fabric fasteners extending from both the foot portion, apertured tabs and the leg support portion secured to the brace to the patient's leg and foot.
