Mattress Incorporating A Headrest For Preventing And Correcting Non-Synostotic Cranial Deformities In Infants
US Patent:
8074312, Dec 13, 2011
Filed:
Dec 1, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/628256
Inventors:
Micam W. Tullous - San Antonio TX, US
International Classification:
A61F 5/00, A47D 7/01
US Classification:
5655, 5731, 5733, 5632, 602 17, 128845
Abstract:
A device for correcting the shape of an infant's abnormally-shaped cranium by applying external forces over time with the growth of an infant to achieve normal shaping of the infant's head. The device applies inwardly-directed external forces only to areas of bony prominence and minimizes (or altogether eliminates) these forces on the areas of the skull that are less prominent (or flattened). Because the present invention is non-conforming to the shape of an abnormal skull, the exerted forces cause accelerated expansion of the skull in less prominent (flattened) areas coincident with brain and skull growth. This causes the cranium to return to a normal symmetric cranial shape. The material that contacts the infant's cranium is semi-rigid, relatively non-flexible, and maintains its overall shape under stress. For an infant with an already normally-shaped cranium, the device causes the infant's cranium to grow evenly and maintain its normal shape, and thus prevents abnormal cranial shaping.

Headrest And Method For Correcting Non-Synostotic Cranial Deformities In Infants
US Patent:

Filed:
Jun 8, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/449402
Inventors:
Micam W. Tullous - San Antonio TX, US
International Classification:
A61F 5/00
US Classification:
602 17
Abstract:
The present invention discloses, inter alia, a device and method for correcting the shape of an infant's abnormally-shaped cranium by applying external forces over time with the growth of an infant to achieve normal shaping of the infant's head. The device applies inwardly-directed external forces only to areas of bony prominence and minimizes (or altogether eliminates) these forces on the areas of the skull that are less prominent (or flattened). Because the present invention is non-conforming to the shape of an abnormal skull, the exerted forces cause accelerated expansion of the skull in less prominent (flattened) areas coincident with brain and skull growth. This causes the cranium to return to a normal symmetric cranial shape. The material that contacts the infant's cranium is semi-rigid and relatively non-flexible, maintains its overall shape under stress.

Lateral Support Craniocervical Orthosis And Method
US Patent:
8590536, Nov 26, 2013
Filed:
Feb 19, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/864103
Inventors:
Micam W. Tullous - San Antonio TX, US
International Classification:
A61G 15/00
US Classification:
128845, 5636, 5637, 5655
Abstract:
A device and method for preventing and correcting abnormal shaping of an infant's cranium by applying external forces over time with the growth of an infant to achieve normal shaping of the infant's head. The device is a cranial orthosis having a depression with a contact surface in the shape of at least a portion of a normal infantile cranium. The orthosis further provides lateral support surfaces creating points of contact to restrict rotation of the infant's cranium and provide additional external forces for normal shaping of the infant's cranium. Because the present invention is non-conforming to the shape of an abnormal skull, the exerted forces cause accelerated expansion of the skull in less prominent areas coincident with brain and skull growth.
