The measurement and applications of this device is used as required on any member of the patient's body. Two molded parts or shells are formed to the shape and size of the specific member or limb of the body where a brace is needed. The inside of each molded part or shell is fabricated to include cushionlike supports or suchioned areas of a soft material that are joined to the shell. These cushioned areas are placed between grooves in the shell. To provide air circulation, holes are positioned equally along the grooves and are opened through the shell.
Construction for the utmost safety, the left and right parts come together precisely. This construction makes the device very stable.
