A lumbar spine orthosis is a wearable external device designed to stabilize or support the lower back, helping manage conditions like spinal deformities, fractures, or soft tissue injuries. These appliances are typically worn over clothing to restrict movement, reduce pain, or aid recovery during rehabilitation.
These devices are generally reusable and fall under orthopedic appliances, often regulated as medical devices rather than drugs. They may require compliance with standards for safety, performance, and manufacturing quality, depending on the jurisdiction and intended use.
