Symposium

Microprocessor Stance and Swing Phase Controlled Orthotics (MPSSCO): the Current State of the Evidence

Microprocessor-controlled stance and swing phase orthoses contribute significantly to improving the quality of life for patients with lower limb paralysis. This experience, which is known from everyday use, is strikingly confirmed by the latest clinical evidence. Participants learn about significant, clinically relevant improvements in the risk of falling, number of falls, mobility and quality of life in an international multi-centre, randomised crossover study with a cohort of 108 patients.
