Abstract
The hip and knee abductor device of the present invention includes a pair of C-shaped thigh cuffs that engage the inner thigh of a patient at a location above the knee. A telescoping spacer bar is pivotally connected at opposite ends to each of the cuffs so that the degree of hip abduction is selectively controlled. A strap is provided on each cuff for securing the cuff to the patient's leg. The cuffs can be changed from a static position wherein there is no relative movement between the cuffs to a reciprocating function wherein the cuffs can move forwardly and rearwardly relative to one another, thereby allowing ambulation by the patient.
