CA 2557941

The present invention provides an orthosis for stretching tissue around a joint of a patient between first and second relatively pivotable body portions. The orthosis includes a first arm member affixable to the first body portion and including a first extension member extending therefrom. A second arm member affixable to the second body portion is also included and has a second extension member having an arcuate shape extending therefrom. The second extension member is operatively connected to the first extension member and travels through the first extension member along an arcuate path when the second arm member is moved from a first position to a second position relative to the first arm member.

La présente invention concerne une orthèse destinée à l'étirement d'un tissu autour d'un articulation d'un patient entre deux parties du corps pivotant l'une par rapport à l'autre. Cette orthèse comporte un premier bras se fixant en un premier endroit du corps et sur lequel prend naissance une extension. L'orthèse comporte également un second bras se fixant en un second endroit du corps et sur lequel prend naissance une extension de forme arquée. Cette seconde extension, fonctionnellement reliée à la première, se déplace en la traversant, selon une course en arc pendant le déplacement du second bras d'une première position à une seconde position par rapport à la première extension.
