Development direction of clinical orthosis

In recent years,MEDI-REHATEK has learned that with the rapid development of the national rehabilitation medicine and the national career of the handicapped, government departments and the rehabilitation medicine circle have a considerable attention on orthosis assembly. The career plan of the disabled takes the yearly number of assembling prosthesisand orthosis as task index "There are organic integration and system services amongphysical disability rehabilitation focusing on corrective surgery, prosthesis and orthosis assembly, functional training. ", " to strengthen the level of orthopedic writing for medical unit. " These specify development direction and determine the exact tasks,develop the important measures for our national orthosis work.

Early in accordance with the traditional concept, orthotics mainly refers to a variety of orthopedic braces for upper and lower limbs and trunk , orthopedic shoes, andsupports for inner organ and so on. But in recent years, it has been expanded to new ranges, such as a variety of canes, crutches, other mobility aids, special cushionsand bed mattresses of improving support and other orthotic devices besides the above-mentioned range . In addition, some modern science and technology has also entered the field of orthotics, such as electric and pneumatic orthosis, functional electrical stimulation, biofeedback, mechanical devices of inner body and environmental control systems etc.

The development of orthosis assembly should be focused on expanding the fitting of orthosis . To meet the increasing demand of the disabled for orthosis, local hospitals, rehabilitation centers, comprehensive service institutions for the disabled should establish the orthosis fabrication and assembly room that is closely related with clinic for the disabled. We should enhance the development of spare parts of orthosis,special material and equipment.Orthosis should be standardized with serialized production on development of component-based product.
