The Aspen® CTO combines a high level of motion restriction of the cervical and upper thoracic spine with a level of comfort that helps make it well tolerated by patients. Research has shown substantially progressive motion restriction in going from a stand-alone cervical collar to a two-post device and then on to a four-post orthosis. For these reasons, Aspen CTO system offers versatility when dealing with cervical-thoracic problems in today’s cost-conscious healthcare environment. The Aspen CTO fits patients with torso circumference measurements of 26-53 in (66-135 cm).
Promotes Enhanced Motion Restriction
The Aspen Cervicothoracic Bracing System™ (Aspen CTO) provides a fully integrated approach for quantifiable motion restriction of cervical spine patients. Physicians are now able to prescribe patient therapies based upon the needs defined at specific vertebral levels to help ensure the best possible outcomes.
By incorporating design elements that allow the Aspen CTO to be “stepped down” from a 4 post CTO to a 2 post CTO model and then to a stand-alone collar, the degree of motion restriction can be easily tailored to the specific needs of the patient.
