Orthesys is not only a technical orthopedics shop but also a center specialized in the analysis and study of locomotor deficits. For over ten years it has been a point of reference for the treatment of pathologies related to walking or running and in the production of tailor-made aids: upper and lower limbs, insoles, corsets and corsets are just some of the solutions that can be found in the orthopedic goods store.
Orthopedic products
Orthesys specializes in custom-made orthotics for both adults and children. An accurate biometric study together with a global objective evaluation allow the realization of a completely customized plantar orthosis according to the most diverse structural, postural, post-traumatic, diabetic, neurological and degenerative dysmorphisms. The use of a wide range of differentiated density materials, allows to fully satisfy the individual well-being expectations by normalizing the load. Among the other products you can find standard and personalized wheelchairs, multi-functional high chairs, anti-decubitus aids, home care aids, rehabilitation aids, aids for deaumbulation.
Elastocompressive braces for lymphedema
For more than 10 years, Orthesys has also developed standard and tailored elastocompressive guardians for lymphedema related to the upper and lower limbs, collaborating with the institutes where the patient is treated by the oncological disease. This product is necessary and essential for treating primary and secondary lymphedema.
You can find both standard tutors for patients with low or moderate lymphedema or tailor made tutors. The brace serves to maintain the stability of the affected limbs and prevents the development of edema over time.
Movement analysis
The flagship of Orthesys is the GAIT LAB, the first bioengineering laboratory in Lombardy for the study of movement alterations applied to orthopedic aids and prostheses. The GAIT LAB provides the clinician, the rehabilitator, the athletic trainer, the orthopedic technician, quantitative and objective information that allows to highlight and analyze problems of posture and ambulation, load abnormalities and muscular insufficiencies, not measurable with traditional clinical examinations. The digital synchronization of the different analysis tools allows you to compare simultaneously, moment by moment, how the patient moves his joints, uses his muscles and distributes his forces on the support surfaces during movement.
Kinematic analysis of the movement
In the Gait Lab it is possible to perform the kinematic analysis of the movement: the "markers" positioned on the patient's joint points, through scientific protocols and validated at international level, are detected by 8 cameras which, analyzing the data through a software, quantify the angles and the movements performed by the main body districts in the 3 floors of the space.
This type of analysis is particularly indicated in the case of: neurological disorders that significantly alter the movement (Hemiparesis, Paraparesis, Infantile Cerebral Palsy, complex traumatic outcomes, degenerative neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis), important spineformity as Scoliosis , Kyphosis or severe lordosis, real and functional dysmetries of the lower limbs that create an imbalance during walking involving more 'districts of the locomotor apparatus, prosthetic surgery of ANCA-KNEE-FOOT, design of orthoses, braces and limb prostheses
Surface electromyography
The EMG can also be performed - surface electromyography: the electromyographic probes, placed in contact with the skin in a non-invasive way, detect the muscular activity of the single muscular bundles to be analyzed, according to the needs of the single patient.
There are several evaluation protocols: muscular activity during the walk, cervical mobility, activity of the masticatory system, mobility of the lumbar spine, stability of the knee, muscular activity during pedaling, muscular activity during the race.
This analysis is particularly indicated in the case of: neurological disorders that generate alterations in the sensitivity of the muscle level, muscle trauma in athletes or in workers who exercise physical wear (cramps, contractures, strains, my-tendon ruptures), pathologies of the spine - pelvis (cervicalgia, lumbalgia, lumbosciatalgia, trocanteriti), malocclusion, masticatory abnormalities in patients close to dental treatment or for follow-up, validity of orthodontic action (eg BITE).
Wireless Inertial Sensor
In Gait Lab, thanks to special technologies such as the Wireless Inertial Sensor (GSensor) it is possible to detect in just a few steps the oscillations of the pelvis on the three anatomical planes (frontal, sagittal, transversal). This exam can also be done in different ways and even OUTDOOR, thanks to the Bluetooth connection between the sensor and the computer that receives the data. Recommended in the case of: discomfort in the lower limbs that create a non-harmonious pelvis movement, pains also due to trocanteritis, often recurrent, or coxarthrosis, frequent pains in the spine or pelvis during daily life, working, sports, even amateur.
Baropodometric and Stabilometric Analysis
A Baropodometric and Stabilometric analysis can also be performed: through the use of a sensorized platform, the areas of the foot with which the patient exerts greater pressure on the ground during the support, both in the static phase and during the walk, are identified.
The stabilometric analysis also goes to quantify the oscillations of the patient's center of gravity over a given period of time. This type of analysis is indicated for those who suffer from complex pathologies that alter the support of the foot, for pains located in certain areas of the foot or for alterations in the ankle, meso-forefoot.
Dynamometric analysis
Also available the dynamometric analysis: 2 dynamometer platforms (INFIN-T) allow us to quantify and study the forces that the analyzed subject exchanges with the ground, both during the static phase and during the movement.
This analysis detects possible imbalances in the forces exerted by the individual lower limbs which, over time, can generate muscular and joint problems.
