Embodiment Construction

[0032] The orthotic device presented here is intended for the correction of a deformity of the spine, namely congenital scoliosis. This orthotic consists of four pressure points:

[0033] a) armpit support (1);

[0034] b) lumbar support (3);

[0035] c) a thoracic support (4) associated with the axillary support (1) causing an opposite lateral inclination of the segment above the apical vertebrae;

[0036] d) The half-hip (5), which causes iliac trochanteric pressure and interacts with the support of the lumbar pressure (3) and the support of the thoracic pressure (4), causing a lateral tilting of the segment below the apical vertebra.

[0037] The orthosis also comprises at least one fixation bar (2) for interconnecting the different elements, allowing an even distribution of forces and causing an asymmetrical traction of the tilt, and a connection allowing adjustment and fixation of the support and the bar components.

[0038] Preferably, the present invention should in...

Abstract

The orthotic device of the present invention is intended for the correction of spinal deformities, in particular for the correction of congenital scoliosis in adolescents, and can be seen as an external orthotic device or brace. Therefore, it is applicable in medicine. This orthotic device comprises four pressure points: b) an armpit support (1); c) a lumbar support (3); d) a chest support (4), which is associated with the armpit support (1), Causes opposite lateral inclinations of the segment above the top vertebrae; e) the semi-hip (5), which causes iliac trochanteric pressure and interacts with the support for the lumbar pressure (3) and the support for the thoracic pressure (4) , causing a lateral inclination of the segment below the apical vertebrae, and the orthotic device also includes at least one fixation rod (2) for interconnecting the different elements, allowing an even distribution of forces and causing a non-inclination of the inclination Symmetrical traction and connection of elements allowing adjustment and fixation of supports and rods.

Description

technical field [0001] The orthotic device of the invention is intended for the correction of deformities of the spine caused by changes in balance, thus making it applicable in the production of corrective prostheses. Background technique [0002] Orthopedic treatment with the aid of corrective braces constitutes the most effective and least invasive method in the treatment of adolescent congenital scoliosis (1-3). [0003] Various imaging techniques, namely conventional radiology, play an important role in the diagnosis and follow-up of this type of pathology (4). Technological developments in the field of imaging, most notably, the development of computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based software, have led to improved diagnostic accuracy and facilitated detection of non-congenital etiologies of scoliosis and / or confirm. Novel imaging techniques have been developed to obtain 3D images with minimal patient exposure to ionizing radiation, thus...
