Oasis TLSO Low Profile with 3 Panels and ATE has a full back. All versions and models come standard with lateral, posterior, and anterior panels. For proper sizing, measure around the patient's waist. Sizes from X-small to 3X-large are available.
This product is typically indicated for the following conditions:
- Burst FX

- Kyphosis
- Laminectomy
- Osteoporosis
- Paraplegia

Choose from models fitted for a neutral or pendulous abdomen. A pendulous abdomen hangs over or towards the pubic region, due to a weakened abdominal wall; a neutral abdomen does not. A patient with a larger stomach and midsection can still have a neutral abdomen.
Make life easier with a PPX or SPX
There are many reasons that an orthotist or physician would choose to have an anterior thoracic extension put on a patient's TLSO. It may be to get the perfect amount of extension or possibly to make the experience of wearing a back brace more palatable to the patient and cooler for the wearer if they live in a warm climate. Whatever the reason, many braces are fit with either a Sternal Pad Kit (SPK) or Pectoral Pad Kit (PPK).
But Optec USA has presented an impressive improvement on these standard models. Optec USA's PPX and SPX have all the convenience of the typical SPK and PPK with one outstanding advantage: remarkably easier adjustment. While SPKs and PPKs give the freedom of precise extension, it comes at a price. To bend that solid metal bar, the practitioner must use metal benders. Eliminate that effort with the PPX or SPX. Instead of needing to manually bend metal to achieve proper extension, all the PPX and SPX require is a simple allen wrench to adjust both the extension and height of the bar. This simplified adjustment of extension is possible due to the joint, or hinge, that the SPX and PPX are designed with. These thoracic extension bars make life much easier on both patient and practitioner.
