Abstract: A device for comfortably securing a user's arms while traveling, comprising one or more sheets of a fabric material which are formed into an article with a rounded pouch shape which comprises a top side, a bottom side, a left elbow pocket, and a right elbow pocket. The top of the device includes a hollow opening for inserting the user's arms into the article, which is sized to accommodate one or more dimensions of the user's arms while in a comfortable folded posture. The device secures the user's arms by providing a resistant compression force against the user's arms to prevent separation; maintaining the user's comfortable folded-arm posture.

Abstract: A non-water-activatable cast has one or more layers of sheet-like material which create a combined flexibility, stiffness, or rigidity so that the cast may be manually positioned in substantial contact with a lower extremity to be received within the cast. As such, the cast is not only readily deployable by a patient, but has predetermined flexibility located and selected to control ankle movement within a therapeutically appropriate range, whether used by itself or in association with a related orthosis, such as a CAM walker. In certain applications, the cast likewise offloads or otherwise redistributes force by virtue of the rigidity of the plantar impact surface on such cast and the rigidity of other cast portions.

Abstract: A waterproof protector for a body member and a method for fabricating the waterproof protector. The waterproof protector comprises a body comprising a fabric layer comprising polyester; a water repellent applied to a first surface of the fabric layer; an antimicrobial substance applied to an opposite surface of the fabric layer and located on an inner surface of the body. The body comprises a main seam formed by a junction of the fabric layer, the junction being sewn by an ultrasound to form a main seam which is further sealed with an additional layer of a waterproof material positioned on the inner surface of the body and sealed to the inner surface by heat. The waterproof protector further comprises a stretchable strap attached to an end of the body and having several hook-and-loop fastener portions for leakless securing of the protector to the body member.
