METHOD OF SPINAL DEFORMITY CORRECTION AND DAMPER DEVICE FOR ITS IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC A61B17/70 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions refers to traumatology and orthopedics and can be used for damping correction of the spinal deformity. Damper device is installed to correct the spinal deformity. In the apparatus, the fixing rods are screwed with screw fasteners to the transverse plates, rod elastic element in the middle part is pressed with a screw clamp to the middle transverse plate, each of the opposite ends of the rod elastic member is passed between a pair of rollers, each pair of rolls is mounted on a bracket, each roller is attached to the bracket by a threaded connection, that the roller axis is perpendicular to the roller bracket, each roller bracket is hingedly attached to the transverse plate with the possibility of rotation perpendicular to its plane, from the convex side of the apparatus, each roller bracket is further connected to the transverse plate by at least one spring. As the spine is corrected, shorter springs are set, or the necessary spring stiffness is maintained by permuting them through the holes, or carry out screw adjustment of the springs. After the correction is completed, the device is dismantled.

EFFECT: group of inventions provides a low injury rate, an individual supporting load.
