Scheuermann’s Disease

Scheuermann’s Disease is a developmental disorder of the spine. Usually, it starts at 10 years old and lasts for 2-3 years and it’s much common among boys than girls. The disease affects the upper backs (T6-T9) and results in changed shaped of the vertebrae.

The signs and symptoms of Scheuermann’s Kyphosis are painful rounded, hunched back. The front edge of middle thoracic vertebrae grow slower than the back edge. These vertebrae become wedge shaped, so when the vertebrae stack up, the spine curves, making the back round out. Some of the disc then pushes into the vertebra and these are called Schmorl’s nodes which limits the mobility.

Together with physiotherapy, our professional pediatric TLSO brace STRADA is recommended for treatment.

Product’s description

FIX-T-02 TLSO brace STRADA is made lightweight and low-profile aluminum covered with skin-friendly waterproof fabric. The shoulder straps have length-adjustment and improves the patient’s posture.

The aluminum part is anatomic-shaped and provides perfect support and offloading of the overburdened spine. The narrow shape between the scapulas reduces the pressure and improves the comfort of use. There are a lot of holes in the aluminum part which allows the skin to breathe and prevents sweating.

The cover of the aluminum brace is made of innovative Active3D™ and CottonComfort™.

Active3D™ is thermoformed fabric made of special foamed, cell-closed designed material. It reduces the pressure on the body or any abrasions made by orthopaedic stays and aluminum splints. It is fully waterproof fabric and does not absorb sweat. It’s easy to clean. Due to its features, the fabric is an excellent product for making medical orthopaedic braces and orthoses. ACTIVE 3D™ has various external self-gripping layers. Our material has special, thermoformed properties and may be shaped according to the functional goals of the final braces.

Active3D is a waterproof fabric and the aluminum part is colourfully painted to protect it from corrosion. Due to this fact, the small patient may use our brace STRADA when showering.

In addition, Active3D reduces the pressure on the bone prominences and improves comfort.

The abdominal pad is additional support and maintains the correct lumbar position.

CottonComfort™ is one of the most comfortable, antiallergic and ecological orthopedic fabric that we use in the production of our products. This raw material consists of a very comfortable polyurethane foam, laminated on one or both sides with a soft and comfortable cotton knit. The knit is made of natural cotton, without any chemicals containing formaldehyde. It is certified by Oeko-Tex® Standard 100, which guarantees safety to the patient's skin. The lamination process takes place without the use of any kinds of glue, but with the use of the flame method, which changes the surface of the polyurethane foam into a sticky surface to which the outer facings of the raw material stick. Thanks to the use of such a production technology, we do not unnecessarily introduce chemical chemicals into the structure of the raw material and we ensure a very high strength of such a connection. CottonComfort™ is used in orthoses in the most delicate places, so as not to cause skin irritation and so that the soft structure of the material tightly fills the free spaces between the orthosis and the patient's body.

Day-to-day using of our TLSO brace STRADA prevents the rounded back, improves the vertebrae shape and relieves the pain. Shoulder straps ensures scapular and head retraction. In the middle of the aluminum element we use elastic rubber which provides perfect fitting and compression of the shoulder straps. Also, the rubber does not limit the mobility of the upper limb.
