Authors' objectives:
To assess the therapeutic benefit of tubular orthoses and bandages for use in orthopaedics/traumatology/rheumatology, taking account of the therapeutic effect/undesirable effect ratio of these products, their place in therapeutic strategy and their public health benefit. Finally, this assessment aims to set out guidelines on their indications with a view to reimbursement, specifying procedures for their use and prescription if appropriate.
Authors' recommendations:
The CNEDiMTS recommends to renew the reimbursement of tubular orthoses and bandages used in orthopaedics/rheumatology/traumatology and the current nomenclature. This amendment involves simplifying the product specifications and stating the procedures for prescription, dispensation and use. Information on individual types of tubular orthoses and bandages has been set out, with guidelines for use.
