  • Patent number: 11986434
    Abstract: A medical walker apparatus and a method for using the medical walker. Embodiments of the medical walker include a wheeled frame and a compromised limb gait system attached to the wheeled frame, where the compromised limb gait system is configured to guide a limb of a user through a simulated gait motion. In aspects, the medical walker gives an amputee patient mobility by providing a leg brace support for the compromised limb with a flexible connection to the walker that guides the compromised limb through a biomechanically proper walking motion, thus allowing the compromised limb to be exercised.

  • Patent number: 11986435
    Abstract: A walker device is described herein including two side frames, each side frame including a front vertical support, a rear vertical support and at least one connecting member extending between the front and rear vertical supports. The walker device further includes a cross bar extending between the two side frames and pivotally connecting to the front vertical supports of the two side frames. The walker device also includes a tension device which applies a resistive force to the pivoting motion between the first cross bar and the two side frames. The walker device is therefore capable of a pivoting configuration which enables the user to learn or re-learn a more natural gait pattern including rotation of the upper and lower body. Some embodiments of the walker device include a second, auxiliary cross bar that is parallel to the first cross bar and horizontally offset from the first cross bar.

  • Patent number: 11986479
    Abstract: Treatments for human subjects exposed to, potentially exposed to, infected by, or potentially infected by a coronavirus, such as SARS-CoV-2, its variants and sub variants are described, which are based on an administration of combination drug products having two or three active ingredients formulated with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. These patients (children, adults and the elderly) suffer from symptoms of COVID-19, and some may continue to suffer from its aftereffects many weeks or months after an infection, like long COVID, including neurological aymptoms such as brain fog and confusion. Physiological ailments may consist of symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, joint and muscle aches, and the like. The two-component combination drug product comprises effective amounts of ANTABUSE (disulfiram) and PURINETHOL (mercaptopurine, 6-mercaptopurine, or 6-MP) or its prodrug IMURAN (azathioprine) or hydrates of these compounds.
