Article Synopsis
- The Intrepid Dynamic Exoskeletal Orthosis (IDEO) brace is designed to enhance gait and stability for patients recovering from lower extremity injuries, and it shows promise in reducing amputation rates when combined with a rehabilitation program.
- A study reviewed medical records of 213 patients treated with the IDEO brace at a military center from 2003 to 2017, examining factors like diagnosis, rehabilitation, and outcomes.
- Results indicated that 61.1% of patients continued using the brace after one year, with particular success in those with footdrop or who underwent specialized therapy; however, 7.5% faced delayed amputations afterwards.
