We reviewed the efficiency of knee orthosis wearing of 11 patients suffering from knee osteoarthritis (OA). The authors found that knee orthoses could increase mechanical stability of the OA knee joints and relieve pain subjectively, which improved patients' daily lives, particularly for those patients under low physiologic knee loading conditions.
