Dear list members
Has anyone had experience in using this orthosis to control knee hyperextension (HE) in post polio.
I particularly want to know if you have altered (i.e. ground off a little metal) the hinges to allow a little HE to allow the knee to lock in stance.
My patient is not keen to consider KAFO at this stage.
Kind regards
