Another cool medgadget being displayed at the Medica 2007 in Düsseldorf is ComforTrac cervical traction system from ComforTrac Inc., a Keysville, VA company. This device has been granted the CE Mark of approval by the European Union in March, and the company is planning to distribute it in Europe as soon as possible. Please note that the system is not a cervical stabilizer for trauma patients, but rather a physiotherapy device.
The ComforTrac cervical home traction unit has been carefully engineered to provide maximum comfort, efficacy, and ease of use. Details that highlight this superior design include a push-of-a-button “quick release” pump, and a contouring memory foam headrest that cradles the head. Likewise, transporting the unit has been made effortless through the use of lightweight durable materials and a carry-case with smooth rolling in-line skate wheels and a retractable stow-away handle typically found only in top-quality ballistic luggage.
Our innovative design makes it possible for patients to go home with the same quality traction they receive during physical therapy.
