Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are described for providing a fluid control means for an inflation system. The control directs fluid flow from an inlet to one or more outlets of the control. The outlets are independently connected in fluid communication with the inlet by through the control. The control allows a user to create a fluid path between the inlet and a selected outlet by positioning the control in an orientation corresponding to the desired outlet. Each outlet is independently connected in fluid communication with the inlet in various orientations of the control.

Abstract: A junctional and truncal tourniquet and a hip-girdling pelvic sling device for maintaining a desired amount of tension surrounding a person's hips and pelvis to securely support and stabilize a pelvis that has been fractured and for securing a pressure applying device to a person so that blood vessel-occluding pressure can be applied. Areas of mating types of fastener material such as mating hook-bearing fastener material and loop pile fastener material are arranged on the device to enable a strap to be secured at various effective lengths to provide a wide range of adjustability. The device may include inflatable bladders, stays, and a chin support and may be wrapped around a patient's neck as a cervical support collar, or around the torso to occlude blood vessels proximal to an injury on a limb.

Abstract: An orthopedic device in the form of a circumferential walker includes a first member (posterior shell) and a second member (dorsal shell) corresponding to the first member. An outsole or plantar shell portion is attached to, or formed on or with the posterior shell. A hinge mechanism is provided between the posterior and dorsal shells to allow the dorsal shell to be swung away from the posterior shell in order to accommodate an anatomical limb therein. Inflatable bladders having perspiration wicking channels and/or openings are provided within a liner for insertion between the posterior and dorsal shells. Quick-connecting buckle and retaining assemblies can be provided to allow a user to quickly don and doff the orthopedic device.

Abstract: An inflatable wrap with automatic tightness detection includes a wrap strap having at least one inflatable sealed zone formed thereon, at least one fluid guiding tube connected to between the sealed zone and an external fluid supply, at least two mating connection elements separately provided on two longitudinally opposite ends of the wrap strap, and a sensor module embedded in the wrap strap. The sensor module includes an output element and a sensor element arranged at locations separately corresponding to the two mating connection elements, and a processor element electrically connected to the sensor element. When the two mating connection elements are detachably connected together to bind the wrap strap around a user's body area with the sensor element and the output element becoming aligned with each other to provide an alignment sensing function, it means the wrap strap forms a closed loop structure to provide a proper pressing force.

Abstract: Bladder devices and various brace apparatuses are used for providing added support to joint regions of a user. Use of the bladder devices enable a user to control the amount of pressure and resulting support to be supplied to selected portions of the joint regions. The bladder devices are able to be inserted into existing brace apparatuses. In addition, cold/hot packs are also insertable into the brace apparatus along with the bladder devices separately or integrally combined therewith, as needed to provide additional comfort and care to the joint region.
