I have a colleague in the Connecticut area who has a physician
requesting an orthosis for the prevention of hip fractures. This
physician reports that he has heard of one being used in Europe to
protect from the impact of a fall.
If anyone is familiar with such a device, please share this information
and I will pass it along.
Thank You,
