Dynamic stimulus technology is based on low-load prolonged stress (LLPS). This allows for consistent low level tension to be applied over an extended period of time targeting weak muscles, inadequate muscle tendon length, and adhesions. Mobilization is achieved with both low intensity stimulus and resistive strength training. Ultraflex braces are versatile, easily adjusted, and can be used in static and/or dynamic modes. All phases of healing from acute, to fibroplasia, to maturation can be addressed with a single orthosis. For the acute phase, full lockout is used for immobilization. For the fibroplasia and maturation phases, clinicians have the options of flexion dynamic assist or block and extension dynamic assist or block for protected motion and joint mobilization. A bi-directional feature, extension and flexion assist, is available for wrist, elbow, and knee orthoses. All Ultraflex combination static and dynamic orthoses address posture and scar tissue lengthening to maintain and increase tissue length for proper limb function. To learn more: Call: Visit:
3 What Do Patients Say About Their Ultraflex Dynamic and Static Combination Stretching Orthoses? It fit right into my daily routine. I just went about my day. I took it off only to shower. Since I was able to move my arm when I wore the brace, I had good range of motion when I started physical therapy. It s great to be able to do all the things I did before I was injured. Compliance/Wear Schedule The specific wearing schedule and protocol will be determined by the patient s treating physician. For post surgical immobilization, the orthosis is generally worn at all times to assure maximum protection of the surgical site. For protected/limited mobilization, the orthosis is also generally worn at all times but may be removed for showering. The range of motion allowed in the orthosis will be determined by the physician and the spring tension should be set to promote a gentle active assist motion for gentle gliding of the involved tendon. For increasing ROM in later rehab, the orthosis may be worn for 8-10 hours a day either during the day or at night as tolerated. The spring tension of the orthosis should always be set low enough for the patient to be able to tolerate MORE TIME vs. MORE TENSION in the orthosis. It is typical to start the spring tension at a setting of 2 and have the patient work toward tolerating 8-10 hours of wear time before increasing tension. Ultraflex recommends patients achieve 8-10 hours of wear time in a 24 hour period for maximum benefit for this last phase of the rehab process.

6 Choosing the Proper Brace Design and Patient Body Interface Ultraflex orthopedic components and custom braces support proper muscular skeletal alignment, stabilize joints, and can be designed to produce a therapeutic or functional assist and/or strengthening resistance. Ultraflex specializes in the design and fabrication of patient-specific bracing solutions which may result in a brace design unique to a single patient.* Severe fractures and crush injuries involving the wrist, olecranon, knee, or ankle usually require a custom molded design. In addition to indication, some other factors usually indicate the need for a custom molded design. These factors include: unique anatomy/unusual anthropometric proportions; excessive adipose tissue; poor sensation, poor circulation, or poor skin integrity; and the need for relative ease in donning and doffing for the patient/caregiver. *For more information on innovative brace designs and fabrication techniques to accommodate special patient presentations, please call Other Specialty Bracing Ultraflex areas of specialty also include therapeutic bracing with precise dynamic stimulus and proper posturing for challenging neurological and congenital presentations and functional bracing with Adjustable Dynamic Response for managing gait dysfunction Ultraflex Systems Inc.
