An 11-year Review of the Efficacy of Cranial Remolding Orthosis Treatment and Factors That Influence Treatment Outcomes for Babies with Combinational Plagiocephaly-brachycephaly (CPB)
Clinician/researcher Cranial Technologies Boston, Massachusetts, United States
This study investigates the efficacy of cranial remolding orthosis treatment for infants with combinational plagiocephaly-brachycephaly (CPB) and the clinical predictive factors associated with outcomes. This study also highlights the need for standardized nomenclature to describe combinational head shape deformities.
Learning Objectives:
Identify three key factors impacting the efficacy and treatment outcomes of CROs in the treatment of combinational plagiocephaly-brachycephaly (CPB).
Describe two clinical implications of this work and how study findings can support providers in the evidence-based treatment of combinational plagiocepahly brachycephaly
Describe the importance of an early referral and why prompt intervention may be required in moderate-severe cases of combinational plagiocephaly-brachycephaly (CPB).
Formulate two evidence-based recommendations regarding cranial remolding orthosis treatment for combinational plagiocephaly-brachycephaly (CPB).
