Effect of powered gait orthosis on walking in individuals with paraplegia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Conservative pedorthic management of the diabetic foot has been shown to be an effective method to prevent ulcers, amputations, and re-amputations. This article exhibits why and how pedorthics plays such an important role via modalities such as footwear, shoe modifications, custom foot orthoses, and partial ...
