Attention Gait Society members!


Check out the newest addition to the Journal Club discussion board on the Academy's Gait Society Website! Article #8 was posted by our Scientific Liason, Shane Wurdeman.


Son et al. (2010) Do Ankle Orthoses Improve Ankle Proprioceptive Thresholds or Unipedal Balance in Older Persons with Peripheral Neuropathy?. Am J Phys Med Rehabil 89(5): 369-375.


Shane has summarized the article and initiated an interesting topic for discussion.


This is an article that I would very much like to hear more from the members of the Society. I am not familiar with the orthosis they used in this study (Active Ankle T2). If anyone in the Society has worked with this orthosis, please chime in your thoughts on the device itself.


To read Shane's summary, click the link provided to log in and go directly to the Journal Club Discussions. <URL Redacted>. The article can be accessed by clicking the PDF link directly below the article reference.


Take a moment to read the article and post a comment! We would love your participation!
