CONTINUOUS PASSIVE MOTION DEVICE

摘要

The invention relates to a continuous passive motion device for rehabilitating a diarthrotic, synovial joint between a near limb with a first joint surface and a distal limb with a second joint surface. The device includes means for inducing a flexion-extension motion of the joint (50; 50') and is characterized in that it additionally includes means for inducing sliding between both joint surfaces (10; 20; 20'), said means acting on one of the joint limbs during the flexion-extension motion.
