Looking for research findings or unbiased/conservative clinical
observations regarding Hinged Knee Orthoses: studies quantifying exactly
what they do in general including limitations (i.e. coronal/sagittal
plane movement control, kinesthetic awareness, edema control, etc.).
Also interested in studies or observations identifying functional
differences amongst manufacturer products (i.e. do higher cost hinged
KO's offer reduced coronal plane movement over lower cost products). I
welcome research reference as well as objective observations from
any/all sources including manufacturer reps. Thanks in advance.
