A pilot study to determine the efficiency of lightweight carbon fibre orthoses in the management of patients suffering from post-poliomyelitis syndrome.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVES:To assess the usage of carbon fibre orthoses in assisting post-polio syndrome patients who reported advancing weakness and difficulty in maintaining their independent ambulatory status. DESIGN AND INTERVENTIONS:Carbon fibre orthoses that are 30% lighter than metal braces were constructed. SUBJECTS:Thirty patients who complained of difficulty in maintaining their ambulation using long-leg braces were provided with lightweight orthoses. RESULTS:Seventy per cent of the patients reported satisfaction with their braces. There were, however, problems in construction and use. CONCLUSIONS:Ambulation can be preserved in some patients who report advancing weakness because of post-polio syndrome.
