Abstract: A sleeve for covering an external surface of an orthosis is described, where the orthosis includes an adjustable posterior frame featuring a first panel slidably coupled to a second panel. The sleeve includes (i) a first material forming an anterior side of the sleeve; (ii) a second material forming a posterior side of the sleeve; (iii) a first padded area attached to a first region of an inner surface of the first material partially forming the anterior side of the sleeve, (iv) a second padded area attached to a second region of an inner surface of first material partially forming the anterior side of the sleeve, and (v) an elastic middle area of the second material interposed between an upper area of the second material proximate to the first padded area and a lower area of the second material proximate to the second padded area.

Abstract: A spine bracing system featuring one or more anterior panels that are trimmable to provide different sized anterior panels, all of which would include finished (fused) edges.

Abstract: A height adjustable orthosis is described. The orthosis features a belt and a posterior frame. Coupled to the belt, the posterior frame includes a first panel including at least a first fastener and a second rear panel including at least a first lock member and a second locking member. The first panel and the second panel are configured to move vertically relative to each other to position the first fastener to engage at least (1) the first locking member at a first height or (2) the second locking member as a second height.

Abstract: A spine brace features a first and a second arm covering a first and a second side of the patient, respectively. Each arm features a middle band disposed between an upper band and a lower band, and an adjustment mechanism that allows for independent adjustment of each band. Each arm may feature a cord coupled to the pulley base to tighten the brace. The adjustment mechanism may include slots for each of the bands, and the upper and lower slots are angled with respect to the middle slot. The first and second arms are removably coupled together using a hook and loop coupling. The brace further features a T-shaped opening that narrows in a center of the adjustment mechanism.

Abstract: A brace configured to wrap around a lumbar region of a wearer features a first arm and a second arm. Each arm features a first band, a panel slidably disposed at a lateral side of the wearer and coupled to the first band, and a loop connector coupled to the panel on a first end of the panel. The first band has a horizontally extending channel, within which the panel moves. The panel features a rigid material, and the loop connector is tethered to the panel. Moving the connector loop causes moving the panel laterally, which adjusts a location of the panel around the lumbar region of the wearer. The brace may further feature an upper band and a lower band.

Abstract: The double pull body brace comprises a one-piece panel which engages around the torso and overlaps at the front. At the overlap, it is attached to itself by means of a hook-and-loop fastener so that a wide range of adjustment is possible. In the back, spaced cord guides are mounted on said panel. Each cord guide carries a plurality of cord guide lobes. An upper cord is engaged around the upper cord guide lobes, and a lower cord is engaged around the lower cord guide lobes. These cords are separately attached to pull tabs. When donned, the user pulls on the pull tabs to separately adjust upper and lower closure tension of the body brace. When in correct adjustment, the pull tabs are attached in place by hook-and-loop fasteners.
