Disclaimer & conditions

1. Per the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, no input fields should contain patient’s full name or other patient identifiers. The user takes full responsibility for non-compliance.
2. The bone models used in the software application can be manipulated to create a graphical representation of the anatomy being treated. This graphical representation is intended to mimic the general anatomy of the deformed bone, and is not meant to include any patient-specific bone characteristics.
3. The user takes full responsibility to ensure that the deformity values entered into the software application are in accordance with his/her clinical evaluation.
4. For reliable deformity measurements using the deformity measurement tool(DMT), the user must ensure that patient X-ray markers and corresponding overlay markers match as closely as possible. Please refer to the software user’s manual for a more detailed explanation of scaling X-ray images and the use of the DMT.
5. For reliable measurements of bone offset from the reference ring center using the ring offset measurement tool(OMT), the user must ensure the ring template is accurately placed at the ring edges. Please refer to the software user’s manual for a more detailed explanation of the use of the OMT tool.
6. It is recommended that the user define a LAS point and calculate a minimum correction time in accordance with the prescribed distraction rate. Use caution when overriding the recommended minimum correction time to avoid an undesirable distraction rate.
7. The user must ensure reference and moving ring type, size and placement entered into the software application are consistent with the actual frame applied to the patient. This is critical for the software application to generate an accurate correction schedule.
8. The user must ensure type and length of all 6 struts entered into the software application are consistent with the actual frame applied to the patient. This is critical for the software application to generate an accurate correction schedule.
