Dr. Ivan Wong Webinar

 

Dr. Ivan Wong is an Orthopaedic Surgeon at the QEII Health Sciences Center in Halifax, NS, and an Associate Professor at Dalhousie University. His expertise lies in minimally invasive arthroscopic surgeries of the shoulder, hip, and knee.

In collaboration with Spring Loaded, Dr. Wong hosts a webinar series dedicated to educating healthcare professionals around the world about new conservative treatments in orthopaedic care. Key topics include improved methods of examining patient symptomatology, an introduction to a novel knee brace, and clinical case studies of patients with anterior knee pain or knee osteoarthritis. Webinars are open to all healthcare practitioners.

Multiple Forces Reduced

Each TCO brace model significantly reduced PF, TF, PC ligament, PT and QT forces during a deep knee bend test.

Reduced Joint Load

Each TCO brace model significantly reduced knee joint loads by at least 32% when compared to the non-braced condition.

Replicates & Extends Previous Research

Results corroborate the knee joint offloading capabilities of a TCO, as demonstrated in a previous study (Budarick et al. 2020).
