  • Orthotics Fact Sheet
    Foundations of Pediatric Orthotics FACT The goal of this fact sheet is to provide a reference highlighting key points of orthotic management in children. Additional information on pediatric orthotic management can be located in the Atlas of Orthoses and Assistive Devices, edited by the American Acad- emy of Orthopedic Surgeons, and Lower Extremity Orthotic Intervention for the Pediatric SHEET Client in Topics in Physical Therapy: Pediatrics, edited by the American Physical Therapy Association. What Is an Orthosis? An orthosis is an external device with controlling forces to improve body alignment, improve function, immobilize the injured area, prevent or improve a deformity, protect a joint or limb, limit or reduce pain, and/or provide proprioceptive feedback. Orthoses are named for the part of the body they cover. Orthoses can be custom molded and custom fitted (custom fitted from prefabricated orthoses or off the shelf). Orthoses are classified as durable medical devices (DME) and require L-codes for insurance reimbursement. A prescription signed by a physician is usually required for insurance reimbursement for custom-molded and custom-fit orthoses. Who Designs and Provides Orthoses? • Certified orthotists have formal education in biomechanics and mate- rial sciences required in designing custom devices. They are nation- ally board certified, and 11 states require licensure to provide custom devices. There are approximately 3,000 certified orthotists in the US, with a limited number of orthotists specializing in pediatrics. Pediatric orthotists evaluate the child, cast the child, modify the mold, fabricate the orthosis, and custom fit the orthosis to the child. • Physical therapists are trained in the function of orthoses and will frequently fit and measure orthoses.
