Development and Validation of a Prediction Model for the Treatment Time of Deformational Head Shapes Using a Cranial Remolding Orthosis [PDF]

Children, 2022
The cranial remolding orthosis (CRO) has been shown in previous studies to be an effective method of treatment for deformational head shapes. Many studies have shown younger infants achieve greater correction than older infants and generally have a ...

Time to successful outcome vs. treatment duration in cranial remolding orthosis treatment [PDF]

Prosthetics and Orthotics International
Background: Cranial remolding orthoses are an effective treatment of deformational plagiocephaly. Typical treatment durations are well documented. However, treatment duration can be affected by multiple factors and may not be a true representation of the time necessary to achieve a successful clinical outcome.
