Brief Summary:
The aging population is steadily increasing partly due to increasing life expectancy At the same time chronic diseases including those affecting the musculoskeletal system eg osteoarthritis whose prevalence increases with age limit the daily activities of those affected and thus affect more and more people Arthrosis is the most common form of these diseases worldwide According to the lInstitut de la statistique du Québec nearly one in two Quebecers aged 15 and over is affected by a chronic health problem
Knee orthosis is one form of treatment that helps patients suffering from knee gonarthrosis This treatment aims to compensate for certain biomechanical deficits in patients A variety of joint configurations exists to target specific biomechanical deficits A constant challenge for companies manufacturing orthoses is transmitting the orthosiss biomechanical effect to the patient The desired effect requires a change in the forces applied inside the knee but the orthosis cannot directly transmit forces to the patients bones due to its external nature to the body Customization of orthoses is crucial to improve the transmission of the biomechanical effect as well as tolerance to it O3D Inc aims to validate the effectiveness of its new custom orthosis for treating knee gonarthrosis symptoms
