  • Publication number: 20230414443
    Abstract: A heel protector (100) includes a leg engaging section (101) and a foot engaging section (102) intersecting at a heel receiver (103). The leg engaging section (101) and the foot engaging section (102) define a leg insertion aperture (104). The leg engaging section (101) defines at least one aperture (203) disposed in an ankle region (205) to permit a connection tube (1002) extending from an inflatable bladder (901) of a compression device (800) to pass therethrough. The heel protector (100) and compression device (800) work together as a rehabilitation system (1300).

  • Patent number: 11771616
    Abstract: A device (900) includes a leg engaging section (101) and a foot engaging section (102 intersecting at a heel receiver (103). The leg engaging section and the foot engaging section defining a leg insertion aperture (104). A first compression wrap member (301) and a second compression wrap member (302) extend from the leg engaging section. An inflatable bladder (501) can be disposed along the leg engaging section between the leg insertion aperture and a compressible cushion layer (902). The inflatable bladder can be selectively inflatable through a connection tube (502) exiting the inflatable bladder at a non-orthogonal angle (504) relative to an edge (507) of the inflatable bladder. The leg engaging section can define at least one channel to permit the connection tube to exit the device.

  • Patent number: 9642559
    Abstract: A compression device (100) configured to provide compression therapy is provided. The compression device includes a wrap (101) having an outer face (105) defining a proximal edge (106), a distal edge (107), a first side edge (108), and a second side edge (109). The second side edge may include a plurality of attachment tabs (110,111,112). An index line (113) can be disposed on at least one of the plurality of attachment tabs. A measurement scale (114) can be disposed along the outer face. The measurement scale can include longitudinal boundaries (115,116) identifying a range within which the index line should position for the compression device to provide an appropriate fit for compression therapy when the compression device is wrapped about a patient's limb.
