Pressure-Sensitive Film
Pressure assessment without electronic sensors
Visualize contact pressure at brace pressure points to support fitting assessment.
No charging, phone or app required.
Assess pressure in scoliosis braces, limb orthoses and foot orthoses.
A three-layer pressure-sensitive film
White paper with a colour-developing coating.
Pressure ruptures the microcapsules. Their contents react with the coated paper to form red marks.
Secures the film to the brace surface at the pressure point.
Five steps for pressure assessment
Mark the area to assess on the inside of the brace.
Centre PressFilm on the marked area inside the brace.
Wear the brace for the assessment period specified in the product instructions and clinical plan.
Use the colour intensity to assess relative pressure.
Review the coloured pattern to assess the location of contact pressure.
Assess pressure intensity and distribution at brace contact areas.
Assess pressure distribution in upper- and lower-limb orthoses.
Apply to an insole or foot orthosis to assess plantar pressure distribution.
