OBSS Ortho-Shape

Lightweight custom back support

The innovative design of the OBSS Ortho-Shape lightweight custom back support incorporates body alignment, pressure distribution, and directional forces for comfortable postural control. The padding on the back and around the edges relieves pressure points and improves user comfort, and the Evolight material helps keep skin dry and cool and reduces skin breakdown. The intelligent ergonomic mounting system provides six inches of freedom allowing users or caregivers to make adjustments in all three planes — tip anterior/posterior, rotate left/right, and tilt left/right — for maximum balance and postural control. A digital scan is all that is needed to start the process of creating the custom contoured back before the shape is reproduced using state-of-the-art CAD/CAM production processes and high-tech materials.
