Technology:
Ultraflex is a committed research and development company,
dedicated to advancing the function of the most demanding
orthotic and prosthetic patients with conservative treatments.
Our patented state-of-the-art technologies are breaking new
ground in therapeutic and functional bracing for patients with
spasticity and other neuro-muscular and orthopedic dysfunction.
They are designed to lower global treatment costs by reducing
the need for more aggressive multiple interventions. We strive
to reduce co-morbidities later in life, by maximizing functional
status through early intervention.
Research:
We advance our technologies through applied research using
the latest materials and current clinical concepts to improve
function conservatively for a target pathology. Ultraflex
uses ethical scientific methods to test for failures and limits
to our technologies and related clinical algorithms. We continuously
refine designs and treatments. More importantly, we tell you
where our technology shouldn’t be used. We do so beyond the
requirements of applicable FDA and CE mark regulations and
standards.
Outcomes:
Ultraflex is a recognized leader in the orthotic and prosthetic
field in documenting clinical and economic patient outcomes.
We are advancing the profession by informing patients of the
treatment benefits and costs versus other alternatives, so
case managers can make better decisions.
Ethical Patient Care:
The greater the need, the smaller the voice or more limited
the resources of the patient - the greater is our opportunity
to quietly make a difference.
Ultraflex uses clinicians certified in the field of orthotics
and prosthetics to:
- help evaluate your needs,
design a custom brace,
integrate a patient specific treatment plan and;
- be a participating orthotics and prosthetic provider (to
assist in determining coverage and payment).
For those truly indigent patients unable to pay, we can offer
assistance in many cases depending on individual circumstances.
Clinical Support:
This web site is designed to give you basic information about
Ultraflex technology and clinical algorithms. Our support
representatives are allied health professionals with access
to current literature searches and an independent clinical
advisory board to confidentially discuss specific clinical
presentations, treatment rationales and intervention strategies.
We also publish our completed outcome reports online to aid
informed healthcare decisions.
Our Mission:
To humbly serve the therapeutic and definitive orthotic and
prosthetic (O&P) needs of patients with severe neuro-muscular
and/or orthopedic dysfunction. The greater the need, smaller
the voice or more limited the resources of the patient - the
greater is our opportunity to quietly make a difference.
