Hi list,
Most of the discussion around orthosis compliance has been about pediatric
bracing (especially scoliosis and Ponseti). So, I’m curious to know - how
do you tell if adult patients are wearing their AFOs appropriately? How do
you improve their compliance levels? Do you view compliance levels as a
reflection of the quality of your work?
I will share the responses.
Thanks in advance!
