Hyper-Extension Spinal Brace (Jewett Type) Analysis Report

Device Identification

The product shown in the images is a medical orthosis, a rigid spinal support device known as a “Jewett brace” or “Hyper-extension brace”. The product is designed to support the torso, restrict spinal movements (especially preventing forward bending/flexion), and maintain the spine in a hyperextension position, consisting of a metal frame and support pads.

Originality

The stitching quality of the pad sections, the paint quality of the metal frame, and the fit of the parts at the joints indicate that the product is a professional medical device manufactured to industrial standards. However, since no visible logo or hologram is present on it, specific brand registration could not be visually confirmed.

Areas of Use

This product is used in orthopedics and traumatology for the following purposes:

• Treatment of spinal (vertebra) fractures (especially thoracolumbar compression fractures).
• Stabilization support after spinal surgeries.
• Pain control and support in osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures.
• Contributing to the healing process by preventing forward bending (flexion) of the spine.

Quantity Information

A total of 1 unit of an integrated Jewett type brace is present in the images. No other parts or accessories are visible in the images.

General Condition

The general cosmetic condition of the product is very good and clean. Signs of use are minimal. The white leather coverings and white metal components appear vibrant. Aesthetically, the product gives an impression of “nearly new” or “very lightly used”.

Physical Deformation

As a result of visual analysis, the following have been identified on the device:

• No tears, detachments, or significant stains were observed on the leather and pad sections.
• No paint chipping, rust, or bending is visible on the metal frame.
• No cracks or breaks were detected on the plastic components.
• No yellowing or discoloration is present on the white surfaces.

Mechanical Components

The mechanical parts of the brace appear sound. The locking mechanism (ratchet buckle system) located on the sides is visually intact. The screw channels and screws (Phillips head) that allow for height and width adjustment are in place. No visible damage or rust is present at the hinge pivot points.

Electronic Components

This product is an entirely mechanical support product; it does not contain any electronic components, sensors, batteries, or motors.

Accessories

The original box, user manual, or spare pads of the product are not present in the images. Only the brace itself is visible. Adjustable hook-and-loop straps are integrated into the product.

Label and Serial Number Information

Given the angles provided by the images, no readable label, barcode, serial number, or REF code is present on the outer surface of the product, on the pads, or on the metal components. Technical data cannot be confirmed via visual inspection.

Size and Compatibility

The product’s metal frame features adjustable holes with a sliding mechanism. This structure indicates that the product is adjustable according to the user’s torso height and width (Modular design). Typically, these types of devices are for adult use. However, the position of the adjustment screws suggests that the device can be extended to fit a certain size range (such as S-M-L).

Potential Failure Risk

Based on visual inspection, no broken or missing parts that would pose an immediate failure risk are observed on the product. The only points to note are the tightness of the adjustment screws on the side bar and the potential fatigue of the locking mechanism (plastic/ratchet part) due to long-term use; however, in its current appearance, these parts seem robust.
