Description

Spinal Correction Back Frame

The present invention relates to the technical field of a spine correction back frame, especially a spine correction back frame that is convenient to use, beautiful and meets the needs of users.

A normal spine is aligned when viewed from the back. When the spine deviates or rotates from the normal vertical midline, and the Cobb angle exceeds 10 degrees and shows an S or C shape, it is called "scoliosis". The sites of occurrence are in the cervical, thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, of which the thoracic and lumbar vertebrae are the most common. Clinically, it can be divided into structural and non-structural scoliosis. The former includes: congenital scoliosis, neuromuscular disorder scoliosis, scoliosis associated with a certain syndrome, and idiopathic scoliosis. The latter is when the structure of the spine is normal, but scoliosis is caused by other reasons, such as poor posture, long or short feet, pelvic tilt, or contractures of the hip muscles.

The choice of clinical treatment should take into account the cause, location, severity and age of the patient. When the side bending angle is less than 25 degrees, observation, rehabilitation exercise and regular tracking are recommended. If the angle is between 25 and 45 degrees, it is recommended to correct the back frame and track it regularly. Surgery is recommended for thoracolumbar curvature greater than 40 degrees or thoracic curvature greater than 50 degrees.
