Title: Pediatric Cervical Orthosis with Variable Fixation PDC

Body:

The PDC pediatric dynamic cervical orthosis provides both bilateral and unilateral immobilization of the cervical spine, based on the concept of early functional treatment. This innovative orthosis minimizes painful limitations of neck movement while encouraging free movement where possible. Special attention has been given to ensuring unrestricted access to the front of the neck, making the PDC suitable for patients with an enlarged thyroid gland or a tracheostomy.

The frameless design and breathable, porous materials ensure comfortable wear.

Indications:

• Degenerative disc disease of the cervical spine
• Ligament injuries (sprains)
• Post-operative recovery
• Muscular torticollis

Unilateral Mobility:

The PDC’s modular design allows for unilateral mobilization of neck muscles. For example, if movement to the right is restricted, exercises can be performed on the left side after removing the modular insert. This immobilizes the affected side while preventing muscle dystrophy on the healthy side.

Adjusting for Unilateral Mobility:

1. Move the orthosis cover to one side.
2. Use a screwdriver to remove the oval plastic module (held by four clips) from the orthosis frame.
3. Straighten the orthosis cover.

Sizing:

• Neck circumference: 25-32 cm
• Heights available: 6 cm and 9 cm

Application:

Place the orthosis around the neck with the arrow on the fastener pointing upwards. Secure the orthosis using the Velcro fastener, ensuring a comfortable fit (not too tight or too loose).

Composition:

47% polyurethane, 19% cotton, 19% polycarbonate, 12% polyethylene, 3% polyamide.
