Bauerfeind SecuTec® Lumbo Back Support Brace

SecuTec® Lumbo Back Support Brace

This product is made of a knitted material and has a bridging frame at the back.

LOWER BACK CONTROL

If gradual mobilization after back surgery is to be effective, the correct balance between stability and activation must be maintained at all times. The bridging frame in SecuTec Lumbo stabilizes the surgical outcome immediately after the intervention. Even rotational movements of the hips can be restricted. In the mobilisation phase, the frame can be removed so that the movement-restricting stabilisation is reduced, leaving only the supporting effect upon the spine.

Indications

• After stabilizing operation (e.g. spondylodesis)
• After lumbar disk surgery
• Degenerative instability
• Spondylolisthesis, spondylolysis
• Facet syndrome
• Lumbar spinal stenosis
• Symptomatic stenoses of the intervertebral lumbar foramina
• Fractures of the lower lumbar spine
• Tumors (metastases), inflammation

SAFETY AND COMFORT

 SecuTec Lumbo is individually adapted to the body shape and treatment stage using a low-power LPT (Low Power Tension) tensioning strap system with practical finger pockets, the anatomical, individually shaped frame and a continuously adjustable fastening on the abdomen. The optimal fit, breathable material guarantee that the orthosis fits perfectly and comfortably at all times, without the need to expend considerable effort to give maximum comfort.

Mode of action

The design of the new SecuTec lumbo allows lumbar lordosis to be reduced in a targeted manner while restricting rotational movements.  The Low Power Tension (LPT) strap system permits the application of considerable force against the body, enabling the bridging frame to produce the optimal effect without much effort on the patient’s part.

The adjustable abdominal fastener combined with the LPT tension strap system permits individual adjustment of the compression exerted on the abdominal cavity.
