Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis (2013)
Journal Article
Majumdar, R., Laxton, P., Thuesen, A., Richards, B., Liu, A., Aran-Ais, F., …Nester, C. (2013). Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis. Journal of rehabilitation research and development, 50(10), 1332-1342. https://doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2013.02.0038

Our aim was to develop and evaluate a new antipronation foot orthosis that addressed problems perceived by clinicians and users with existing foot orthoses. Clinicians and users were engaged to develop a user specification for the orthosis, and ort... Read More about Development and evaluation of prefabricated antipronation foot orthosis.
