TLSO Back Brace
A TLSO Back Brace (Thoraco-lumbosacral Orthosis) is a spinal brace that supports the thoracic (mid-back), lumbar (lower back), and sacral (pelvic) regions. It’s designed to immobilize and stabilize the spine in patients recovering from spinal injuries, surgeries, or conditions such as scoliosis, herniated discs, or fractures.
Key Features
- Full Spine Coverage: The TLSO brace extends from the upper back (thoracic region) to the lower back (lumbar and sacral regions), providing complete support and immobilization across these areas.
Rigid Frame: The brace is usually made from rigid materials like plastic or metal, with anterior (front) and posterior (back) panels that ensure the spine is kept in a neutral, stable position.
Custom-Fit Options: Some TLSO braces are custom-molded to fit an individual’s body, while others are available in adjustable, off-the-shelf designs with Velcro straps for ease of use.
Breathable Padding: Despite its rigidity, many TLSO braces include padded, breathable linings to improve comfort for extended wear.
Adjustable Straps: These allow for the brace to be tightened or loosened to provide a personalized fit while maintaining the necessary level of support.
Benefits
Post-Surgical Recovery: Often prescribed following spinal surgery (such as spinal fusion or tumor removal), a TLSO brace helps protect the spine and reduce stress on the healing tissues.
Fracture Management: TLSO braces are effective in stabilizing fractures in the thoracic or lumbar regions, particularly in cases of compression fractures or osteoporosis.
Scoliosis Treatment: For patients with scoliosis, the brace can help prevent the progression of spinal curvature by maintaining alignment and reducing pressure on the vertebrae.
Pain Relief: By immobilizing the spine, the brace helps alleviate pain caused by degenerative disc disease, spondylosis, and other spinal conditions.
Types of TLSO Braces
Prefabricated TLSO: These are off-the-shelf designs that can be adjusted to fit a variety of patients. They are often used for short-term support after minor surgeries or injuries.
Custom-Molded TLSO: Custom-made braces are typically used for long-term care, particularly in cases of scoliosis or severe spinal deformities.
The TLSO Back Brace is an essential tool for managing spinal conditions, providing both stability and mobility during the recovery process.
