AMBULATORY CLINICS

Ideal for ambulatory support.

By all accounts, diabetes has reached epidemic proportions and is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide, with over 18 million diabetic people in the United States alone and 194 million people worldwide (Medical Technology Focus Oct. 2009). Among all types of chronic, hard to heal ulcers, diabetic ulcers are the most difficult to treat. The incidence of ulcers among diabetic patients is estimated at 15%, affecting over 2.4 million patients in the US and over 17 million patients worldwide.

Orthoflex braces are:

Ideal for ambulatory support (pre and post operations) foot and ankle trauma and elective surgery.
Protection of diabetic feet. Rapid casualty comfort and support.
Time saving for staff; suited for radiographic examination.
One brace for all limb injuries.

The Orthoflex brace is easily applied and removed, thus allowing physicians to effectively treat wounds and fractures before and after operations, when rigid fixation is not required. The brace will provide patients with a more convenient bracing solution during the healing process.

We found that using this brace (in fractures of the calcaneus), relieve the patient’s pain pre and post operation and make them comfortable. Daily management is easy: early mobility is enhanced, wound care is facilitated. The nursing staff was very satisfied. The Orthoflex variable stiffness inflated brace is better than any previously used temporary support for these fractures and the patient can be discharged non-weight bearing using the same brace for support.

I was impressed by the mentioned ingenious device for Foot and Ankle splinting, and as a temporary and anti rotational fixation in hip fractures.
I find it a very comfortable splint for our patients.

I congratulate Prof. Daniel Reis and Mrs. Dalia Zucker on their brilliant idea. I do believe that in order to realize all the potential developments and expedite the production they should receive all necessary help, since orthopedics in Israel and the whole world is waiting to benefit from this contribution.

We recommend the OF2 – Long brace for all EMS uses. Both user and patient satisfaction is high. I look forward to our ongoing collaboration and recommend the integration of the OF2 – Long brace as standard equipment for our ambulances.

The Brace gave the required support to the limbs and enabled the washing and treatment of the wound in a way easy to both caring staff and patient.
