    Abstract: An alignment guide for total ankle replacement surgery and a method of creating and using the alignment guide. The alignment guide has a surface that interfaces with a corresponding surface of a superior aspect a talus of a patient, and as second surface portion that interfaces with a corresponding distal surface of a section of a tibia of the patient. When the alignment guide is in position, it maintains the ankle of the patient in a preselected position.

    Abstract: The invention is directed to a cervical spine protection apparatus one or more composite bands attached to provide restraint of one or more motions of the cervical spine of a wearer. The apparatus is designed to protect a wearer from incurring cervical spinal injuries, and/or to reduce the severity of cervical spine injuries without substantially compromising the normal functional range of motion of the wearer's cervical spine.

    Abstract: An apparatus which determines the load-displacement and flexibility characteristics of an anatomical joint. The apparatus includes a first frame for receiving a first body portion and a second frame for receiving a second body portion which is pivotable with respect to the first body portion. A pivot assembly is interconnected between the first frame and the second frame such that the second frame is pivotable with respect to the first frame about first and second frame pivot axes. The body portions are positioned on the frames such that the first and second joint pivot axes are generally aligned with the first and second frame pivot axes, respectively. Angular potentiometers are used to determine the angular displacement of the second frame with respect to the first frame about at least one of the first and second frame pivot axes upon application of at least one force to the second body portion. Torque sensors are also provided for determining a torque about at least one of the first and second frame pivot axes upon application of the force. The determined angular displacement and torque are indicative of the load-displacement and flexibility characteristics of the joint.

    Abstract: An anatomically fitted talar component for use in an ankle replacement system having a body including a talar surface having a portion contoured to approximately or exactly fit with a surface portion of a three dimensional rendering of bone of a talar dome; and a tibial surface configured for forming a joint with a second component of the ankle replacement system. A method of forming the talar component by: (i) obtaining image data of the talar dome, (ii) using the data to create a three-dimensional model of the talar dome, and (iii) forming a body having a talar surface that approximately or exactly fits with a portion of the surface of the three-dimensional model.

    Abstract: A functional electrical stimulation brace responsive to various positions of an intended wearer's foot. The device includes a plurality of sensors positioned at different locations under the intended wearer's foot to detect the current position of the foot. Outputs from the sensors are fed to a controller that uses logic to activate an electrical stimulation unit that stimulates the peroneal muscles of a patient at the appropriate times during the patient's gait. The device may also employ mechanical stabilization of the ankle in addition to the functional electrical stimulation by means of an ankle foot orthosis with a variable resistance hinge. The electrodes are embedded in fixed locations in the brace upper portion so that optimal location of the electrodes relative to the peroneal muscles is maintained every time the device is applied. Also provided is a method for assistance and rehabilitation for a patient by electrical stimulation of the peroneal muscles. In the method, the position of the foot is detected and the peroneal muscles are stimulated responsive to particular positions of the patient's foot in order to activate the muscles at the appropriate times during the patient's gait. The device also provides lateral and torsional stability by means of the ankle-foot orthosis.
