Hip joint orthosis for e.g. supporting musculature of patient after hip joint implantation, has electro stimulation device for generating electro stimulation, where beginning and ending of stimulation is controlled by switch
The orthosis has a hip belt including three parts in the form of shell elements (1), which are movably arranged and fixed on a flexible anti-rotation cable. An orthosis joint (5) includes an adjustable, progressive resistance, which works against movement of a patient at an extreme position. An electro stimulation device (3) is attached to the shell elements for generating electro stimulation, where beginning and ending of the stimulation is controlled by a switch e.g. hand switch, such that muscles near the joint are stimulated, where the switch depends on a motion- and/or movement cycle.
