Leg Handle (Right and Left Hand versions)

The Leg Handle Leg Lifter is a new application for the mature product called the Cast Handle which has been used internationally since 1996 by patients immobilized in a long leg cast or brace while recovering from injury or surgery.

This same product has proven useful in assisting individuals who suffer from partial or total leg paralysis through injury to the spinal cord, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and other nerve and muscle-wasting diseases. Most patients suffering from weakened or paralyzed leg muscles are confined to a leg brace or cast. On top of reduced mobility, they encounter daily frustration with the inability of their weakened leg muscles to lift the added weight of a brace or cast without assistance.

The Leg Handle Leg Lifter is simply a set of strong but soft nylon handles that attach via hook and loop fasteners to the patient's leg. The Leg Handle's wide cushioned straps cradle the patient's injured or weakened limb, allowing them to maneuver their leg with one hand while steadying, lifting or lowering themselves with the other hand.

This product is also beneficial to caregivers. They can assist patients using only one hand, while better keeping their own balance without having to reach down as far to grab and lift a patient's leg.

Originally designed to fit leg braces and casts, The Leg Handle Leg Lifter also comfortably accommodates large legs swollen by edema and other conditions which affect the diameter of the leg.

The D-ring closure adjusts to almost any leg size, with or without a cast or brace, and locks into place to prevent over-tightening which might cut off circulation to the limb. The unique hook and loop material is very wide and soft on both sides of the appliance so that it can be worn comfortably over pants or directly against the skin when a cast or brace is not being worn.

While The Leg Handle Leg Lifter is easily removable, most patients find it to be so comfortable and useful that they wear it like an article of clothing, day and night. Unlike other leg lifters that are basically a loop on the end of a stick that must be carried like a cane, the Leg Handle Leg Lifter can remain attached and in place and at the ready whenever the patient needs it.
