Vacuum bell orthoses have become rapidly popular in the treatment of pectus excavatum over the past five years. This method, proven effective by numerous clinical studies, is a non-surgical option that is preferred by both patients and specialists as an economical , safe , and effective solution.

However, not every patient is the same—success with standard vacuum systems can be limited, especially in adults with reduced chest wall elasticity or severe deformities .

This is where Dynamic Pump technology makes a difference.

Better Results in Challenging Cases

Dynamic Pump is the first smart vacuum system to electronically control constant negative pressure. The pressure applied throughout the session is monitored in real time and automatically adjusted , ensuring the system consistently delivers the optimal values for the patient.

Thanks to this technological structure, the device provides high success in a wide range of patient groups , from children to adults , from mild depressions to advanced deformities .

Effective in a Broader Age Group

Clinical results show that Dynamic Pump is effective in both pediatric and young adult patients in a short time:

A 14-year-old patient: Reduction from 1.2 cm to 0.8 cm in 35 days

A 26-year-old patient: Improvement from 2.5 cm to 1.5 cm in 68 days

These data reveal that the vacuum bell can be used safely not only in young individuals with flexible chest structures, but also in older patients with high chest wall rigidity .

Personalized, Programmable Treatment

The Dynamic Pump transforms treatment from standard to completely personalized. For each patient:

Pressure level
Application period
Adjustable pressure level at 20-minute intervals during the session
3 different customizable session program options

It can be adjusted individually. This increases treatment comfort and ensures patient compliance and sustainability .

Thanks to this automation, the need for manual control is eliminated , human error is reduced, and treatment progresses in a much more controlled manner.
