Abstract
Skolioza je bolest u kojoj je deformirana prirodna krivulja kralježnice te je često dijagnosticirana tijekom razdoblja brzog rasta u adolescenciji. Postoji nekoliko vrsta skolioze, međutim fokus ovog rada biti će na idiopatskoj skoliozi kod adolescenata. Rana intervencija tijekom rasta optimalna je jer kralježnica nije u potpunosti koštano oformljena. Kako bi se izbjegao operativni zahvat, preporučuje se tretman liječenja kralježnice ortozom. Cilj liječenja ortozom je sprječavanje daljnjeg napretka krivulje, ispravljanje postojećih deformacija i stabilizacija kralježnice. Dijelovi ortoze stvaraju pritisak na kralježnicu i time pomažu u ispravljanju deformabilnih krivulja. Nadalje, svaka ortoza prilagođena je specifičnim potrebama i krivulji kralježnice pacijenta. U tekstu se opisuju i analiziraju različite vrste ortoza koje se koriste za liječenje skolioze. Zatim se detaljno razmatra proces ocjenjivanja i poboljšanja ortoza, fokusirajući se na karakteristike u kojima ima prostora za unaprijeđenje. Neki od glavnih karakteristika za unaprijeđenje su ugodnost i fleksibilnost korisnika pri nošenju ortoza. Nadalje, u konceptualnoj fazi projekta razvijeni su prijedlozi za poboljšanje te su se nakon konstrukcijske razdrade predložili koncepti. Iako je tržište ortoza konkurentno, predloženo rješenje se ističe time što zadovoljava bitne zahtjeve korisnika. Naime svojim oblikom, omogućuje prozračnost pri korištenju uz dodatnu potporu s medicinskim ulošcima na strateški postavljenim mjestima. Također je cijenom pristupačniji u odnosu na druge ortoze jer se izrađuje aditivnom tehnologijom. Zbog navedenih karakteristika, predloženo rješenje ima potencijala biti konkurentno na tržištu. Naposlijetku, cilj diplomskog rada je stvoriti ortozu koja će maksimalno zadovoljiti potrebe korisnika, s naglaskom na udobnost i funkcionalnost, uz eliminaciju dosadašnjih nedostataka koje su korisnici istaknuli.
Abstract (english)
Scoliosis is a condition in which the natural curve of the spine is deformed and it is often diagnosed during periods of rapid growth in adolescence. There are several types of scoliosis; however, the focus of this paper will be on idiopathic scoliosis in adolescents. Early intervention during growth is optimal because the spine is not yet fully ossified. To avoid surgery, treatment of the spine with an orthosis is recommended. The goal of orthosis treatment is to prevent further curve progression, correct existing deformities, and stabilize the spine. Parts of the orthosis create pressure on the spine, thereby helping to correct deformable curves. Furthermore, each orthosis is tailored to the specific needs and curve of the patient's spine. The text describes and analyzes different types of orthoses used for treating scoliosis. It then examines the process of evaluating and improving orthoses in detail, focusing on characteristics that have room for improvement. Some of the main characteristics for improvement are user comfort and flexibility while wearing the orthoses. Additionally, proposals for improvement were developed in the conceptual phase of the project, and concepts were suggested after the construction analysis. Although the orthosis market is competitive, the proposed solution stands out by meeting the essential requirements of users. Namely, its shape allows for breathability during use with additional support from medical inserts strategically placed. It is also more affordable compared to other orthoses because it is made using additive technology. Due to these characteristics, the proposed solution has the potential to be competitive in the market. Finally, the goal of the thesis is to create an orthosis that will maximally satisfy user needs, with an emphasis on comfort and functionality, while eliminating the previous shortcomings highlighted by users.
