Abstract

The Matrix seating system is an adaptable orthosis made of interlocking plastic components which can be shaped to fit the needs of the disabled. Twenty-five patients who had used this system for a minimum of 12 months have been assessed clinically.

However, it was found not to prevent deterioration in spinal deformity nor to prevent hip dislocation.
