Objectives: Patients suffering from mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis may be treated with unloader knee orthoses or laterally wedged insoles. The aim of this study was to identify and compare the effects of two orthoses in these patients. Methods: 56 patients with medial compartment knee OA were evaluated when wearing an unloader knee orthosis and insoles with a 6° lateral wedge which wer...
Introduction Gait modification is frequently used as conservative management in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Knee orthoses, such as knee sleeves and unloader knee braces, are nonpharmacological treatment for gait modification in symptomatic knee OA. Previous studies lack systematic investigation of biomechanical effect and functional capacity, particularly walking capacity. This study investigated...

Methods: 56 patients with medial compartment knee OA were evaluated when wearing an unloader knee orthosis and insoles with a 6° lateral wedge which were randomly assigned. Testing was performed at baseline and after 6 months of use with the two types of orthoses. The KOOS score was used to assess outcomes in this study. A paired T test was used for comparing base line and the 6th month post in...

BACKGROUND Unloading knee braces can provide good short-term pain relief for some patients with unicompartmental osteoarthritis (UOA). Their cost is relatively small compared with surgical interventions. However, no previous studies have reported their use over a duration of 5 years or more. METHODS Up to 8 years of prospective data were collected from 63 patients who presented with UOA. Afte...
This study presents a pilot investigation into the effectiveness of unloader knee braces for osteoarthritis subjects. The unloading effect of the brace was modeled by applying a knee abduction moment as a function of the brace deflection angle, eliminating the need for load sensors on the knee brace. The use of a detailed musculoskeletal model provided the means to evaluate the relative importa...
BACKGROUND The use of knee-ankle-foot orthoses with drop locked knee joints produces some limitations for walking in subjects with quadriceps muscle weakness. The development of stance control orthoses can potentially improve their functionality. OBJECTIVES The aim of this review was to compare the evidence of the effect of stance control orthoses to knee-ankle-foot orthoses with drop locked ...
BACKGROUND Lateral knee osteoarthritis is notably common after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). While valgus bracing has been investigated as an intervention for medial knee osteoarthritis (OA), little is known about the effectiveness of varus bracing for lateral knee OA after ACLR. PURPOSE To determine the immediate effects of a varus unloader knee brace on gait biomechanics...
