Abstract
An orthopedic hinge assembly for connecting an upper and lower portion of a brace, such as a knee brace, includes a hinge housing member with an abductor member movably mounted on the housing member. A pair of adjuster members are also mounted to the housing member and a stop member attached to the abductor member extends through arcuate apertures on the adjuster members. The adjuster members can have outer indentations and manually operable fastener assembly can fix or release the respective adjuster members so that they can be set to a desired position to define the limits of movement of the abductor member and thereby control flexion and extension of the patient's leg.
