The Ottobock MyCRO Band is a non-sterile temporary orthosis to aid in the correction of head
shape caused by positioning. The orthosis uses contact and growth zones to guide the growth of
the head. The contact zones define gentle limits for growth, while the growth zones leave space in
areas required for forming the natural head shape. An adaptable closure allows for adjustability
as the child grows. The orthosis is made of thermoplastic material with a soft, washable lining on
the interior.
