More Information
Summary:A cranial orthosis configured to induce cranial remodeling to achieve symmetry of the skull, as well as adequate proportions between the head width and length, for infants suffering from positional skull deformities comprises a headpiece adapted to encircle, and to be secured to, the skull of an infant suffering from positional skull deformity in such a way that contact between a flattened occipital area of the infant and a flat surface on top of which the infant is lying is prevented so that unrestricted occipital growth (or other places) is able to be induced, wherein said headpiece is adjustable to take into account cranial growth of the infant and to redirect the head growth. The headpiece is capable of adjusting the infant's head growth, to improve symmetry and obtain adequate proportions.
