The National Scoliosis Center’s Rigo Chêneau Brace A Custom Brace Addressing the 3-D Nature of Scoliosis

Principles of the Rigo Chêneau Brace Our custom TLSO is designed to treat scoliosis by addressing the curvature, rotation, alignment and balance of the spine Our design utilizes the time-tested concepts of Rigo Chêneau principles with modern innovations Uses pressure and relief points to correct the position of the spine Utilizes CAD/CAM Technology Made with copolymer plastic because of its durable, lightweight (≈ 21 oz) and slimline (≈4 mm) characteristics

Dr. Manuel Rigo and Dr. Jacques Chêneau The concept of our Rigo Chêneau brace originated in 1979 with the work of Dr. Chêneau, who focused on the rotation of the spine Studies show that the Chêneau brace significantly decreases lateral deviation and rotation of the spine Dr. Rigo improved on Dr. Chêneau’s work in the 1990s Expanded Dr. Chêneau's 2 basic designs to create 9 design configurations Each design is specific to an x-ray classification

National Scoliosis Center’s Custom TLSO, Rigo Chêneau Brace Our braces are cast, designed and fabricated in-house Step 1: Digital Scan of Torso We utilize computer-aided design, or CAD/CAM technology, to digitally scan the torso of the patient Step 2: Design of Brace The brace is then designed by modifying the digital shape of the patient’s torso to maximize correction of the curvature of the spine Step 3: Patient Model Created A plaster mold of the design is created to use as the basis for the brace fabrication

National Scoliosis Center’s Custom TLSO, Rigo Chêneau Brace (cont’d) Step 4: Outer Pattern/Color of Brace Applied The brace is wrapped with the design selected by the patient Our patients enjoy choosing the design of their choice. This helps the patient not only personalize the brace, but take ownership of it: http://nationalscoliosiscenter.com/services/custom-scoliosis-bracing/personalize-your- brace/ Step 5: The heated shell is then applied to the plaster mold and formed for the prescribed corrective pressure/expanse points

National Scoliosis Center’s Custom TLSO, Rigo Chêneau Brace (cont’d) Step 6: Delivery The brace is now ready to be fitted to the patient Using the patient’s input, we make minor tweaks to ensure the brace is as comfortable as possible Patients return as often as they desire for adjustments due to growth or weight gain
