A medical adjustable torticollis orthosis

Abstract

The invention discloses a medical adjustable torticollis orthosis device. A head support and a lower jaw support are connected through connecting rods on two sides respectively, and a chest fixing device and a head component are connected through a first supporting rod and a second supporting rod which are arranged on both sides and are adjustable in length; the first supporting rod is rotatably installed on a first side of the chest fixing device, a first connecting shaft of the first supporting rod can be rotatably connected with a first shaft base on the first connecting rod or a second shaft base on the lower jaw support, the second supporting rod is rotatably installed on a second side of the chest fixing device, and a second connecting shaft of the second supporting rod can be rotatably connected to a third shaft base on the second connecting rod or a fourth shaft base on the lower jaw support; through the design differences of the supporting rods on the left and right sides, thefunction of sternocleidomastoid on the affected side of a child patient is substituted. Compared with a traditional orthosis device, the medical adjustable torticollis orthosis device is more scientific; through the design of the supporting rods and bearings, the sagittal stability of the head of the child patient can be ensured, and meanwhile the movement of a sagittal surface of the head of thechild patient is maintained, so that the living quality of the child patient is guaranteed, and the cervical muscle activity and exercise are maintained to facilitate rehabilitation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of orthotics, in particular to a medical adjustable torticollis orthosis. Background technique [0002] Congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) is the third most common congenital malformation of musculoskeletal system in children after hip dislocation and equinus. Infantile muscular torticollis is a common and frequently-occurring disease in pediatrics. It is one of the most common congenital deformities in children, with an incidence rate of 0.3% to 0.5%. Its clinical manifestations are characterized by the child's head tilting to the affected side and the face turning to the healthy side. Due to the contracture and organization of one side of the sternocleidomastoid muscle, most of the children found a fusiform neck on one side of the neck after birth. The mass, and then the head is tilted, which affects the function of turning the neck. Over time, the facial development of the child will be asymmetrical, and the tr...

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In recent years, with the continuous development of science and technology and the needs of the medical field, various adjustable torticollis orthopedic braces have appeared on the market, but because traditional torticollis orthopedics cannot maintain a satisfactory fixed position, To achieve a satisfactory treatment effect, and the fixation principle of traditional orthopedic appliances is too rigid, the child's head remains immobile for a long time, which seriously affects the quality of life of the child and the postoperative rehabilitation process
