The Vita 01-2-010 Halo Vest provides critical support, aiding in faster recovery by maintaining spinal alignment and stability while allowing for necessary mobility and comfort.
Key Conditions Covered:
- Hangman Fracture (Type A2): A critical injury involving a comminuted fracture of the lateral mass of the atlas, typically requiring precise stabilization.
- Comminuted Fracture of the Atlas Lateral Mass: Severe breakage of the lateral mass of the atlas, necessitating comprehensive support.
- Avulsion Fracture of the Atlas Lateral Mass: A fracture where a fragment of the atlas's lateral mass is pulled away, demanding accurate immobilization.
- Transverse Fracture of the Odontoid Process Base: A fracture at the base of the odontoid process with minimal displacement.
- Transverse Fracture of the Occipital Condyle: Fracture across the occipital condyle requiring careful alignment.
- Explosive Fracture of the Vertebral Body (Subaxial A3-A7): A severe fracture of the vertebral body below the axis, often requiring robust stabilization.
- Atlanto-Occipital Dislocation (Minimal Displacement): Displacement between the atlas and the occipital bone requiring specific support.
- Atlanto-Axial Subluxation (Minimal Displacement): Slight misalignment between the atlas and axis, necessitating careful adjustment.
- Unstable Teardrop Fracture (A3-A7): A severe fracture characterized by a tear-shaped fragment, demanding significant stabilization.
- Traumatic Spondylolisthesis (A2-A3): Forward slippage of a vertebra due to trauma, requiring detailed support to prevent further displacement.
