PSB Arm Brace
PropertiesThe PSB Arm Brace exerts pressure on the lower arm muscles,relieving pressure on the tendons attaching these muscles to theelbow joint. The attachment points are where pain is felt. Thanks toits design and the silicon strips on the inside, the sport brace cannotslip during wear. The design and the materials guarantee optimaluser comfort.
Measuring for sizeThe PSB Arm Brace is available in one size.The following points are important when fitting a PSB Arm Brace:• Fitting is made easier by taking the tape through the fastening
ring beforehand.• Subsequently the brace can be pushed up the arm until it is just
under the elbow. In the case of a tennis elbow, the pad must be positioned on the outside of the arm and in a golf arm on the inside. The plastic fastening ring is on the outside of the arm and thus not in the crook of the elbow.
• The pad must be worn about 6 cm under the elbow bone, on the fleshy part of the wrist extensors, or wrist flexors.

PSB Ankle Brace
PropertiesOne unique feature is that the PSB Ankle Brace provides excellentsupport for this ankle joint with just a minimum of material. Due to itslow volume this sport brace can easily be worn inside shoes ortrainers, even combined with shin pads. An important factor is thecarefully designed tape construction, which immediately inhibits theankle joint if over-inversion* threatens, i.e. which is the case in mostankle traumas. The stiffener on the inside of the ankle joint bears thetape construction and is supported by the inner sole of the shoe.
Advice on measuring for sizePSB Ankle Braces are available in four sizes: Small, Medium andLarge and Extra Large and are different for the right and left ankle. Inorder to measure the correct size, the entire instep circumferencemust be measured, i.e. over the instep and behind the wheel (seeillustration). You can use a normal tape measure for measuring or aspecial PSB tape measure, which shows the sizes in differentcolours.
The table shows the fitting range of the various sizes.CODE DESCRIPTIONPSB073 Small PSB Ankle BracePSB074 Medium PSB Ankle BracePSB075 Large PSB Ankle BracePSB076 X-Large PSB Ankle Brace

PhyNeeds-9.Orthopaedic 19/3/08 15:40 Page OR12
Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction (SPD) was mentioned by Hippocrates, and described definitively in medical literature by Snelling in 1870: -
“The affection appears to consist of a relaxation of the pelvic articulations,
becoming apparent suddenly after parturition, or gradually during pregnancy; and permitting
of a degree of mobility of the pelvic bones which effectually hinders locomotion, and
gives rise to the most peculiar, distressing and alarming sensations”.
Contrary to documented evidence SPD is not uncommon, and to date is under recognised. This painful disability frequently results in the woman experiencing great difficulty caring for her family, social isolation, depression and relationship difficulties.
AetiologyAlthough in every pregnancy there is a natural increase in the width of the symphysis pubis due to laxity of the connective tissue under hormonal influence, severe dysfunction and pain commonly occur irrespective of clinical evidence of joint disruption. Recognition and management of symptoms may reduce the long-term morbidity experienced by some women.
Client GroupWomen who are, or have been, childbearers.
Assessment – History from client:
Onset: In pregnancy, during labour, following delivery, insidious or sudden.
Distribution of pain:Pubis, groin, medial aspect of thighs – unilateral/bilateral frequently accompanied by low back, sacroiliac and supra-pubic pain.
Signs and Symptoms:Mild-severe pain: exacerbated by walking and all weight bearing activities particularly those which include lifting one leg, e.g. stairs, or parting the legs, also by movement in bed.
Symphysial “clicking” or grinding may be audible, and can be felt by the woman, difficulty in walking – a “waddling” gait is typical.
ExaminationRange of hip movements will be limited by pain – particularly abduction.Inability to stand on one leg.Exquisite pain may be elicited on palpation of the symphysis pubis – use extreme caution!
NB: SPD should not be confused with urinary tract infection, or dismissed as “the aches and pains of pregnancy”.
Treatment
Support and relief can be achieved by wearing the Serola Sacroiliac Belt.

Foot Up - To Stop Drop Foot
CODE: 07810
The ‘Foot-Up’ is a lightweight ankle orthosis, designed to provide dynamic support for drop foot or similar complaints. This simple orthosis not only provides visible improvement in the patient’s gait, by providing support the moment the foot is raised, but it is simple to fit and practically invisible when worn.
Foot-up combines two separate parts; an ergonomic ankle wrap, which connects to a plastic inlay that fits between the tongue and the laces of a shoe. The attachment fastens to the ankle wrap by a strong elastic strap with a quick release clip. The ankle wrap is made from a breathable three-layered structure, which makes it comfortable to wear for long periods, without causing irritation to the skin or impeding the foot’s freedom of movement.
8 Streamline8 Lightweight8 Invisible when worn8 Comfortable to wear8 Breathable Material8 Padded8 Easy to fit
The Shoeless Foot-Up connects to the Foot-Up & allows the device to be worn without footwear.
The Shoeless wrap fits around arch of the foot & clips to the Foot-Up anklet.
Please note that this product is an accessory and does not include the ankle piece & therefore should only be ordered in conjunction with the Foot-Up, or as an upgrade to the standard shoe insert.
