Development of a sensor device for measurement of forces in cranial remodeling orthoses

Deformational plagiocephaly (DP) is an asymmetric infant head deformation caused by intrauterine pressures, birth complications, or unbalanced head position during sleep. In the most severe cases, it is treated with a cranial remodeling orthosis (CRO). A CRO is a customized helmet designed to constrain the growth of the infant's head, aiming to achieve head symmetry. During treatment with CROs, so...
