Problems solved by technology

[0009] This difficulty in wearing a compression orthosis is a barrier known to both patients and carers, and various types of devices have been suggested to make it easier. Generally speaking, when the orthosis is a stockings, most such devices consist of metallic and / or rigid structures that are complex to manipulate
[0010] FR-A-2 340 708 describes one such device, a rigid Turkish slipper cut at the toe, the attachment does make it easier to pull the stocking over the foot, but does nothing for wearing the stocking over the rest of the limb The operation of putting on orthotics is difficult when the limb is covered with dressings and the patient is immobile under anesthesia

Embodiment Construction

[0026] The piercing aid of the present invention consists of a flexible and deformable cover formed in this example from a piece of cloth adapted to surround and contain the limb (leg or arm) receiving the orthotic and completely cover its sides.

[0027] As an example, the cover can be made as a single piece of cloth wrapped around a limb, however, it is preferably made as a tubular product, that is, one side of the piece of cloth is sewn to its opposite side, thereby forming a closure with a cover opening into which a limb can be inserted. contour. This opening corresponding to the proximal end of the limb when the sleeve is on is hereafter referred to as the "apex".

[0028] Thus, the top end of the cover is open and the bottom end can also be open to optionally allow the extremity of the limb to protrude through it, or conversely the bottom end is closed, in which case the cover is Cloth bag or bag. It will be understood from the description of how the method of the pres...

Abstract

The method comprises the following steps: a) enveloping the limb (22), over a length corresponding at least to the length of the orthosis (18), in a flexible sleeve (10) of material having a low coefficient of friction and great strength in traction and resistance to tearing, the limb possibly having dressings or bandages present thereon; b) the orthosis is put on over that portion of the limb which is enveloped by the sleeve, with this being performed manually, causing the orthosis to slide over its entire length on the sleeve interposed between the orthosis and the limb; and c) once the orthosis has been put on and put into place, the interposed sleeve is extracted by traction, the sleeve sliding between the orthosis and the limb which then come mutually into contact as the sleeve is extracted.

Description

(1) Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of tubular compression orthotics made of knitted elastic textile material such as "elastic stockings". [0002] In the present invention, such orthotics have a variety of shapes. For example, a compression orthotic for one or both lower extremities could be a form-fitting stocking (covering the thigh and calf), tights (covering both lower extremities and the abdomen to the waist, in one piece), a leg Tights (tights that set only one leg and put pressure on only one lower body), or real socks (cover only the calf). [0003] The invention may also be used in compression orthotics for the upper limbs. [0004] Accordingly, the present invention is not limited to one particular article, but relates to all types of tubular compression orthotics such as those described above (ie bandages excluded). (2) Background technology [0005] Difficulties arise from the fact that such compression orthotics are made of ...
