Original question:

I am working with a 79 y/o lady who wants support for her kyphosis. I like
the Orthomerica California ECO which is only available in black. She wants
white. Anyone know of a similar device in white?

 

Thank you to all who responded:

If your still looking, look at the Aspen Contour. It is Code L0464 Approved.

would the Medi Spinotech work for her?

 

check out Bauerfiendusa.com they have a white one but it is a garment.

 

Take a look at the Bauerfeind TLSO. I forget the name but it looks like a
one piece bathing suit, works quite well and everyone I fit with it not only
likes it, but wears it!

 

Bauerfeind makes one that is kind of a light gray color.

 

Try Aspen - it's not pure white but has the pulley closure with velcro

 

There is a device similar to ECO with medi. I am not quite remembering the
name( I guess it's spinomed)

 

Hey, Esteemed Colleagues is mine.

 

Freeman Mfg has a few white dorsolumbar corsets with stays rather than the
full rigid posterior panel. They have std options as well as pendulous
abdomens options if needed. I believe Trulife also has the Camp dorsolumbar
supports in white as well. If you are looking for something with a more
structural back panel the ECO by Orthomerica and the SpinoMed III by Medi
work well but come in black and grey, respectively. In severe cases that
I've had this year of combination kyphosis and scoliosis, I have had great
success with an actual metal and leather, Knight-Taylor TLSO with corset
front (Becker has prefab sizes and will custom make it to meas if needed.)

 

There's a product line from Trulife called Elcross that I have used with
similar pt's. It's Beige.

 

American orthopedic supply cleveland alabama.

 

Spinomed III is gray

 

Our Dyna-Lock TLSO comes in white and can be used for patients with
Kyphosis. Take a look.
