BACKGROUND Patients with pectus carinatum complain of cosmetic problems because they stand out in spite of wearing clothes. Surgical treatment of pectus carinatum is resection of the deformed cartilage but a wide operative scar, postoperative pain and complications related with the operation can occur. Therefore we have performed compressive brace therapy as a non-operative treatment of pectus ...
Methods In this case control study, 11 patients with long thoracic curves (imbalanced three-curve pattern or A1 from the Rigo classification) were treated with a specifically designed RSC brace called "three curves brace with open pelvis." These 11 patients were compared to a control group of 10 patients with the same age and curve magnitude, treated with a classical RSC brace for a three-curve...
The difficulty of predicting the acceptance and the result of wearing rigid braces has been identified before and is reported in the literature. Therefore a test instrument has been developed and tested. The intention is that the test instrument can imitate a rigid brace. Furthermore, different attributes of the rigid brace can be altered. Thus the range of the lordosis, the level of maximal do...
Objectives: We evaluated whether a valgus knee brace and an insole with subtalar strapping could reduce pain and improve functional scores over 12 months in patients with medial knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: OA was confirmed by radiography in all patients, who were divided into three groups: exercise (n = 44), insole (n = 55), and brace (n = 19). Clinical knee functions and gait analyses w...
Abstract Introduction Soft/dynamic braces today are used all over the world under the name of SpineCor. The marketing concept is very effective in promoting the soft brace as the first and only ‘dynamic’ brace. A short review has been undertaken, investigating the history of dynamic braces and devices available today. Short communication The use of soft braces to treat scoliosis has been docume...
Aims and background: Low back pain is a common ailment that affects about 80% of the population at some point in their life time. Using a brace is a method to control pain that physiotherapists recommend it. However, the scientific evidence about the effects of different braces in low back pain patients is limited. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of two thoracol...
BACKGROUND The use of external ankle support is widespread throughout sports medicine. However, the application of ankle bracing to a healthy ankle over a long period has been scrutinised because of possible neuromuscular adaptations resulting in diminished dynamic support offered by the peroneus longus. OBJECTIVE To investigate the immediate and chronic effects of ankle brace application on ...
BACKGROUND Throwing athletes risk medial elbow injury from extreme valgus stress generated across the medial elbow during throwing. Braces have been developed to protect the elbow joint; however, no previous study has investigated the effects of elbow bracing on medial elbow joint space gapping associated with repetitive throwing. HYPOTHESIS/PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigat...
PURPOSE Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is often associated with low bone mineral content and density (BMC, BMD). Bracing, used to manage spine curvature, may interfere with the growth-related BMC accrual, resulting in reduced bone strength into adulthood. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of brace treatment on BMC in adult women, diagnosed with AIS and braced in early a...
