Brace and Support

Lumbamed® facet is a medical lumbar support orthosis designed to relieve pain and stabilize the lower back, particularly targeting the facet joints of the lumbar spine. It is commonly prescribed for conditions involving facet joint osteoarthritis and other lumbar spine disorders.

Product features

• Targeted relief of the facet joints through effective reduction of lordosis
• Precise regulation of intra-abdominal pressure by means of the double 3-point strap system
• Holds the pelvis in an upright position
• Stabilises the lumbar spine area and the lumbosacral transition
• Contains Rigid material

Intended purpose

The Lumbamed facet operates using a combination of compressing knitted fabric, stabilising back rods and a pullstrap system which increases pressure. Abdominal compression and trunk musculature support relieve the strain on the lumbar column and thereby ease pain. The four crossover pull straps create a double three-point system with the dorsal points of application on the pelvis and in the upper lumbar spine area. Through individual pressure management, this three-point strap system increases the effect of reducing lordosis formation.

Basically, the orthotic can be worn all day long. The special cut in the groin area (Comfort Zone) ensures that the fit of the support is comfortable and just right. However, the length of time you wear it should depend on your needs.

Goal setting

Open the belts, loosen the front shin from the inner shoe and finally take the inner shoe out of the Walker.

Open the leg and foot part of the inner shoe by loosening the Velcro fasteners. Ask the patient to place his foot and lower leg into the inner shoe. Make sure that the air chambers are empty!

Close the inner shoe and make sure that it is firmly fixed to the patient's leg. Align the inner shoe in such a way that the integrated pump is sitting in the middle and so that later it fits into the space provided in the shin.

Now ask the patient to place their foot in the half shell of the Walker. The lower leg and foot should positioned so that they fit exactly into the shell.

Check to see that the foot is properly set and positioned in the Walker.

Make sure that the patient's toes are not pushing against the toe protector. If necessary, the toe protector's position can be adjusted or it can be removed completely.

Now place the loose front shin onto the patient's shinbone and foot. Make sure that the pump and ventilator fit into the spaces provided.

Close the belts to stabilise the system. Start by closing the belt at the front and then close all the other belts one after another. The belts should fit tightly.

Extra material can be cut away.

Ask the patient to walk around in the orthosis to make sure that the Walker is sitting properly.

To tighten the Walker's fit, the air cushions can be filled using the pump system. Adding or letting out air can be operated using the valve. The padded pieces can be used as additional padding.

The Spinomed Back Orthosis is designed for people with osteoporosis and works by activating the back muscles through a belt system and back support that trigger biofeedback. This helps gently straighten the upper body and counter the spinal curvature associated with osteoporosis.

The orthosis supports the muscles in holding the shoulders back while allowing free movement of the shoulders and arms and unhindered breathing. When optimally adjusted, Spinomed can help reduce pain and increase day-to-day mobility.

Key Features & Benefits

• Scientifically proven effectiveness
• Designed for osteoporosis-related kyphosis
• Activates the back muscles through biofeedback
• Helps improve trunk muscle strength
• Ergonomically shaped shoulder straps
• Belt system and back support encourage muscle activation
• Helps increase mobility by enhancing muscle strength
• Helps reduce kyphosis associated with osteoporosis
• Helps reduce pain
• Rigid material provides back support
• Allows free movement of the shoulders and arms
• Designed to allow unhindered breathing
• Individually adjusted by an orthopaedic technician

Intended Purpose

When worn, Spinomed activates the back muscles to gently straighten the upper body. The back splint and strap system support the muscles in holding the shoulders back and maintaining a straighter upper-body position while stimulating the body's own muscle resources.

Indications

• Osteoporotic bone collapse in the thoracic and lumbar spine
• Hyperkyphosis with chronic back pain
• Juvenile Scheuermann`s disease

Wearing & Fit

Spinomed is worn over clothing and can be put on similarly to a rucksack. For easier application, standing in front of a long mirror can help with positioning.

For proper fit:

• The back brace should sit closely against the spine.
• The bottom edge should be level with the buttock cleft.
• Straps should not be twisted.
• The shoulder pad should fit comfortably without the strap cutting into the underarm area.
• Reverse buckles should not press into the sides.
