Milwaukee Brace - Metal And Plastic Construction | Customizable Size, Off-white Color, Adjustable Straps For Scoliosis And Kyphosis Treatment In Children

Our provided Milwaukee Brace, also known as a cervico-thoraco-lumbo-sacral orthosis or CTLSO, is a back brace used in the treatment of spinal curvatures (such as scoliosis or kyphosis) in children. It is a full-torso brace that extends from the pelvis to the base of the skull. It was originally designed by Blount and Schmidt in 1946 for postoperative care when surgery required long periods of immobilization.
Milwaukee braces are often custom-made over a mold of the patient's torso, but in some cases, it can be made from prefabricated parts. Three barsa two posterior and one anteriora are attached to a pelvic girdle made of leather or plastic, as well as a neck ring. The ring has an anterior throat mold and two posterior occipital pads, which fit behind the patient's head. Lateral pads are strapped to the bars; adjustment of these straps holds the spine in alignment.
This brace is normally used with growing adolescents to hold a 25A to 40A advancing curve. The brace is intended to minimize the progression to an acceptable level, not to correct the curvature. For corrective measures, special exercises or physical activities are used. If the curvature continues despite the brace, surgery may be required.
The Milwaukee brace is often prescribed to be worn 23 hours a day for several years, or in some cases, permanently. Clients can avail this Milwaukee Brace at industry leading prices from us.
