摘要：
An assistive device (AD) was used to treat 122 infants with moderate-to-severe positional plagiocephaly. Clinical evaluations indicate that the AD provided the most benefit when applied to 2- to 8-month-old children. Our results suggest that the AD may join molding helmets and physical therapy as a treatment for moderate-to-severe positional plagiocephaly in infants under the age of 1 year.
