Also called a double hip brace, a bilateral hip brace supports both the left and right leg and hip. This brace can be used before and after surgery, for anterior and posterior hip dysplasia, hip revisions, and mild to moderate osteoarthritis in the hip. This design provides flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction.
For the vertebral column, flexion (anterior flexion) is an anterior (forward) bending of the neck or body, while extension involves a posterior-directed motion, such as straightening from a flexed position or bending backward.
Complex orthoses are devices designed to assist multiple joints. These orthoses are not as common as ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs). They are designed for patients with extensive weakness in the lower limbs. The purpose of these complex orthoses are to: Provide support and protection. Optimally align the joints.
13 Ιουν 2021 · By using the cushion in addition to the hip brace, we did find significant differences (cushion versus no-cushion) of the maximum hip flexion for the unhinged (p < 0.001) and 90° hip (p < 0.001) brace setting (Fig. 3B).
12 Ιουλ 2016 · More commonly there is excessive hip flexion, or insufficient hip extension, which may occur in combination with any abnormality at the knee and ankle. Inability to extend the hip may compromise the attainment of a stabilizing external extension moment at this joint.
Three types of hip joint brace were typically prescribed: (1) the single-axis hip joint with lock, which allows only flexion and extension; (2) the two-position lock hip joint, which can be locked at full extension or 90 degrees of flexion; and (3) the double-axis hip joint, which has both a flexion-extension axis and an abduction-adduction axis.
To investigate the dynamic and passive stabilizing effects of 3 ankle braces, 2 hinged models that provide free plantar flexion–dorsiflexion in the sagittal plane and 1 ankle brace without a hinge.
