Side effects:
When properly applied, side effects are not yet known. Bandages or orthoses that are too tight can lead to local pressure or, in rare cases, constrict blood vessels or nerves: Due to the principle of the bandage (delor dosage by increasing the intra-abdominal pressure), there may be an increased risk of diseases associated with increased intra-abdominal pressure, such as hypertension, venous reflux disorder, inguinal hernias, reflux complaints, etc.
Description:
Modular system (2-step therapy):
1st stage: Restriction of movement in the unloading position
In stage 1, a lordosing position and abdominal pressure are achieved by the laterally stabilized 6-unit bridging pad and the individually adjustable abdominal pad. The pressure on the diseased disc is reduced and the affected movement elements are relieved. Movement is severely restricted, rotations are still possible to a limited extent.
2nd stage: Reactivation
In the last stage, the stiffening of the link pad and the upper belt are removed, the pad is shortened to 4 segments, the stabilizing rod is replaced by a flexible connecting element. The spinal column is returned to the physiological lordosis. Due to the compression-strong bandage and the bridging of the lumbar spine, a relief of the damaged intervertebral disc is achieved. If symptoms reoccur, the bandage can be reattached to the orthosis at any time.
The Tigges lumbar support consists of a support and an add-on set, which can be delivered together or in separate packaging units. The individual elements must be assembled by the prosthetist and adapted to the anatomical conditions of the patient and according to the doctor's instructions.
