Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1988
Bracing the knee is a controversial, complex, and often confusing subject. Knee braces are categorized as either prophylactic, rehabilitative, or functional. Bracing goals are to prevent, assist, restrict, align, or simulate function of the knee. A working knowledge of the capabilities and limitations of specific braces in these different categories is

Engineering structures, 2020
Traditional buildings, even with normal self-centering energy dissipation (SCED) braces, might suffer from large deformations and high mode effects under an extremely strong earthquake, leading to a concentration of inter-story drift in upper floors.

Physiotherapy Theory and Practice, 2011
The Milwaukee brace had been a standard of nonsurgical treatment for scoliosis since 1954. Milwaukee brace 23-hours wearing protocol was most effective for the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. However, Milwaukee brace 23-hours wearing showed an impact on psychosocial functioning of the patients.

Clinics in Sports Medicine
Bracing options for the therapeutic and preventative treatment of cartilage injury and osteoarthrosis have traditionally been understudied and underutilized due to poor patient compliance and a lack of published clinical efficacy data. However, recent advancements in 3-dimensional printing, biomechanical analysis of the joint, and dynamic joint ...

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 1994
The authors present an overview of the design and functional features of knee braces and their relationship to knee biomechanics. Four types of knee braces-prophylactic, rehabilitative, functional, and patellofemoral-have been developed to cover the wide variety of indications in patients who have suffered knee injuries or hope to prevent them ...
