I have encountered patients infrequently who come to our clinic with prescriptions for custom made protective helmets, primarily to protect their heads from falls due to drop seizures. It is always a challenge to decide on the most appropriate materials for these helmets since we are unable to adequately test them. I sometimes refer patients to sports stores for hockey-style helmets or climbing helmets. I have also fit some patients with Danmar helmets, or have made some from thermoplastics and laminates lined with plastazote.
I would like to know if anyone is making custom helmets for adults with seizures, and what materials for the shell and lining they use.
Thank you.
