The Pediatric TLSO Compression Garment | Core-Max Expedition is a highly adaptive TLSO designed to meet the changing needs of children who require trunk support. Unlike traditional orthoses, it offers a progressive system that allows for varying degrees of stability and flexibility, thanks to its unique modular design.
The orthosis features two X-shaped Kydex panels of different sizes, which can be easily swapped out to provide different levels of trunk support. Caregivers can adjust the orthosis depending on the child's condition the larger X-panel for maximum rigidity, the smaller panel for moderate support, or the stays for minimal stabilization. As the child's trunk control improves, the panels can be removed entirely, allowing the Core-Max Expedition to function as a pure compression garment, providing sensory input without the added bulk of rigid components.
The Core-Max Expeditions double-layer Lycra/Nylon fabric delivers two and a half times more compression than typical athletic wear, ensuring consistent sensory stimulation while maintaining comfort. This breathable and moisture-wicking fabric helps keep the child cool during extended wear, making it ideal for both daily use and therapy sessions. The compression not only supports posture but also helps guide the body back to its natural alignment over time.
Designed with flexibility, the Core-Max Expedition adapts as the child grows and develops better control, offering a customized solution that evolves with their progress. It's the ideal choice for pediatric patients needing stabilization and the freedom to move.
