The Oppo Taylor Type Thoracic-Lumbosacral Spinal Orthosis (code 2166) is a lightweight and functional orthopedic aid designed to provide effective support to the lumbar and thoracic spine. Its construction with ventilated material makes it comfortable for prolonged use, ensuring the necessary stability without restricting freedom of movement.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why is it important for the material to be ventilated?
The ventilated material allows the skin to breathe, preventing the development of sweat and the occurrence of irritation. This is especially important for prolonged use, as it keeps the skin dry and comfortable, enhancing patient compliance with the treatment.
How is the orthosis worn correctly?
For correct application, the orthosis should be placed with the stays on the back, parallel to the spine. The shoulder and abdominal straps should be adjusted to provide firm but not excessively tight support. It is essential to be fitted by specialized personnel.
In which cases is its use indicated?
The orthosis is indicated in cases where additional spinal support is required, such as after minor injuries, for the conservative treatment of chronic conditions, or for the prevention of injuries during activities.
