CA 2523145

The invention relates to a device for assistance in the selection of a compression orthesis and in adapting same to the morphology of a limb. The inventive device consists of: means (26) for establishing a first file containing data representative of the morphological characteristics of the limb (30), comprising the three-dimensional co-ordinates of a mesh of points (68) with different heights; means (10) for establishing a second file containing data representative of the dimensional and rheological characteristics of the orthesis, which are defined with different heights; compression simulation means (48) which, using the data from the first and second files, can determine the compression pressure values that are likely to be exerted by the orthesis on the limb at a plurality of points of said mesh; and means (50) for displaying the pressure values thus determined in a graphical manner, for example, by overlaying a 3D graphical representation of the limb, or a section of same, with the false colour- or grey level-coded calculated pressure.

Ce dispositif comprend : des moyens (26) pour établir un premier fichier de données représentatives des caractéristiques morphologiques du membre (30), comprenant les coordonnées tridimensionnelles d'un maillage de points (68) à différentes cotes; des moyens (10) pour établir un second fichier de données représentatives des caractéristiques dimensionnelles et rhéologiques de l'orthèse definies à différentes cotes; des moyens (48) de simulation de contention, aptes à determiner, à partir des données des premier et second fichiers, des valeurs de pressions de contention susceptibles d'être exercées par l'orthèse sur le membre en une pluralité de points dudit maillage ; et des moyens (50) de présentation sous forme graphique des valeurs de pression ainsi déterminées, notamment par superposition à une représentation graphique 3D du membre, ou d'une section de celui-ci, d'un codage en fausses couleurs ou en niveaux de gris de la pression calculée.
