The SnugKap is intended for medical purposes for use on infants from 3 to 18 months of age, with moderate to severe nonsynostotic positional Plagiocephaly, including infants with plagiocephalic-, brachycephalic-, and scaphocephalic-shaped heads by applying mild pressure to prominent regions of the infant's cranium in order to improve cranial symmetry and/or shape. The device is also indicated for adjunctive use for infants from 3 to 18 months of age whose synostosis has been surgically corrected, but who still have moderate to severe cranial deformities including plagiocephalic-, brachycephalic- and scaphocephalic-shaped heads.

The SnugKap devices are cranial orthoses intended to be utilized on infant patients that suffer from head shape abnormalities. The SnugKap devices are additively manufactured from a 3D scan file of the patient's head. The scan file is digitally modified to address the anatomical/shape abnormalities in the skull. The SnugKap is then 3D printed and fabricated according to the case plan approved by the orthotist. The SnugKap is manufactured from a copolymer made of polylactic acid; additional parts are made of a variety of materials including thermoplastic polyurothane, polypropylene, and Plastazote® (white or pink) polymer foam.
