    摘要: A stretching platform includes a planar support structure having an upper surface in a substantially horizontal orientation. The planar support structure is configured to support a person lying in a prone position on the planar support structure and facing upward. A hip strap is configured to extend upward from the planar support structure and over hips of the person when the person is lying in the prone position on the planar support structure. A leg lifting mechanism is configured to lift a leg of the person when the person is lying in the prone position on the planar support structure and when hips of the person are secured by the hip strap in a substantially immobile manner relative to the planar support structure. The leg lifting mechanism is configured to apply an upward force to a posterior side of the leg at a location near a foot of the leg.

    摘要: The invention relates to an occlusal splint arrangement (01), in particular for sleep apnoea therapy, comprising a maxillary miniplast splint (02) that can be arranged on the maxillary row of teeth and a mandibular miniplast splint (12) that can be arranged on the mandibular row of teeth, the miniplast splints (02, 12) each having positioning means (05, 22) by means of which (05, 22) the relative position of the miniplast splints (02, 12) towards each other can be defined in the longitudinal direction (X). For simple adjustment of the position, exchangeable positioning means (22) that are mounted on centring pins (15) are used on one of the two miniplast splints (02, 12). A secure attachment of the respective exchangeable positioning means (22) on the centring pin (15) is realised by a latching connection.

    摘要: A formable cast (100), brace (180) or splint is provided herein which comprises a padding (101), an outer shell (103) spaced apart from the padding, and a ridge (109) disposed along the perimeter of the shell. The ridge, shell and padding define an interior space (115), with a curable polymeric material disposed in the interior space. The curable polymeric material undergoes a phase transition, upon curing, from a liquid or gel phase to a substantially rigid solid phase. The cast (100), brace (180) or splint may be readily customized to the patient by fitting the cast to the patient's body, positioning the cast in the desired orientation, and curing the curable polymeric material through exposure to actinic radiation or by other suitable means.
