Abstract: A medical treatment device (20) is disclosed which includes a medical treatment element (36,38) and resilient securing members (32,34) which adjust or deform to conform to the particular dimensions of that part of the patient's anatomy which is to be treated. The resilient securing members (32, 34) move or deform outwardly away from the patient (22) as the device is applied to conform to the size of the patient and ensure that the patient is centered within the treatment device. The medical treatment elements (36,38) are thus accurately positioned with respect to the patient (22). This is particularly important in treatments involving the application of magnetic fields to the patient (22). In addition, the disclosed medical device (20) is relatively comfortable and can be worn by a patient (22) for a relatively long period of time. The invention also extends to the method of applying the medical treatment device (20) to the patient (22).

Abstract: A method for the assessment of various properties of bone is provided. The method includes applying a pair of ultrasound transducers to skin on opposite sides of the bone and generating an ultrasound signal, and directing the signal through both the bone and a known medium to obtain a bone output singal and a reference signal. The method further includes establishing a set of parameters associated with the bone output signal and a set of parameters associated with the reference signal, and then subjeting the two sets of parameters to comparative analysis in order to obtain the desired bone property. An apparatus for the assessment of various properties of bone is also provided. The apparatus includes a pair of ultrasound transducers (16, 18) which may be single element transducers or array transducers in any combination. The apparatus further includes various computer hardware components (20, 22) and computer software (34) for generating and directing the ultrasound signal, establishing the parameter sets and performing the comparative analysis.

Abstract: The present invention provides continuous passive motion (CPM) devices for joints. An ankle CPM device includes a lower leg support attached at its lower end to a semi-circular track. An actuator slides along the track and can be locked in any desired position on the track. A shaft is pivotally connected at one end thereof to the actuator and a shoe is attached at the other end thereof. When the actuator is positioned at the bottom of the track, the ankle joint of the patient undergoes inversion/eversion motion. When the motor housing is rotated 90° and positioned near the top of the track plantar/dorsi, flexion movement is obtained. A combination of both types of joint movement are obtained for the actuator in intermediate positions. A wrist CPM device includes a brace for the forearm attached to a semi-circular track on which an actuator is mounted. A hand grip is mounted on a semi-circular bracket and a shaft extends between the actuator and a coupling slidably mounted on the semi-circular bracket. With the actuator positioned below the forearm, when the actuator pivots the shaft the wrist joint undergoes ulnar/radial deviation movement and when the motor is rotated 90° and positioned at the side of the arm, extension/flexion movement of the wrist joint is obtained. Positioning the actuator in intermediate positions produces a wrist movement which is a combination of extension/flexion and ulnar/radial deviation of the wrist joint.

Abstract: Disclosed are thrombin peptide derivative dimers comprising two polypeptides having the amino acid sequence Arg-Gly-Asp-Ala-Cys-Glu-Gly-Asp-Ser-Gly-Gly-Pro-Phe-Val (SEQ ID NO:2), or a C-terminal truncated fragment of the polypeptide having at least six amino acids. Zero, one, two, or three amino acids in the polypeptide or polypeptide fragment differ from the corresponding position of SEQ ID NO:2. Also disclosed are methods of treating a subject in need of treatment with a thrombin receptor agonist. The methods comprise the step of administering an effective amount of the thrombin peptide derivative described above.

Abstract: A therapeutic mobilization device is disclosed. The device includes a flexion assembly, a pro/supination assembly and a valgus carrying angle compensation device. The flexion assembly has an arm attachment assembly and an elbow actuator and the elbow actuator defines and axes of rotation. The pro/supination assembly is attached to flexion assembly and has a distal forearm attachment assembly and a pro/supination actuator operably connected thereto. The valgus carrying angle compensation device is operably attached to the flexion assembly and the pro/supination assembly. Preferably the pro/supination assembly is slidably mounted on a housing shaft whereby during flexion the pro/supination assembly is free to move along the housing shaft. Further, preferably the arm attachment assembly includes an attachment ring and an adjustable clamp pivotally attached thereto whereby the attachment ring defines a pro/supination axis and the adjustable clamp pivots orthogonally to the pro/supination axis.
