<< I have a colleague in the Connecticut area who has a physician requesting an orthosis for the prevention of hip fractures. This physician reports that he has heard of one being used in Europe to protect from the impact of a fall. If anyone is familiar with such a device, please share this information and I will pass it along. Thank You, Robert N.
