Abstract: Lumbo sacral orthosis (apparatus) the anterior and posterior portions of the brace consist of a medical grade ABS plastic. They are lined with Velcro laminate foam of ½ inch thickness which is self conforming to eliminate pressure points. The anterior plastic has three compression pull straps which attach to three D-ring straps on the posterior section. The anterior straps are threaded through the D-ring and allow the patients apply the appropriate tension to the apparatus. The six straps are attached to the plastic via brass oxide rivets.

Abstract: Lumbo Sacral Orthosis (apparatus) is comprised of the anterior and posterior rigid medical grade ABS heat moldable plastic. The anterior and posterior panels are lined with foam covered with a Velcro hook and loop fastener type material. These are affixed to the panels by a hook and loop fastener. The anterior and posterior panels are placed on the torso of the patient with an adjustable strap system consisting of elastic material with an internal plastic moldable insert, which is attached to the posterior panel via two brass oxide rivets. The strapping system is attached to the anterior panel via hook and loop material. This allows for the patient to apply desired tension. The secondary strapping system is affixed to the posterior panel via two brass oxide rivets attached to heat moldable plastic material. The anterior panel secondary strapping system is affixed to the panel via two stainless steel rivets. The anterior and posterior secondary strapping system is then connected via a buckle system.
