Managing osteoarthritis and knee deformities often requires more than medication alone.

The V-VAS™ Custom Unloader Knee Orthosis helps redistribute forces across the knee joint, reducing pressure on the affected compartment and improving patient mobility.

✔ Up to 30° adjustable varum or valgum stress
✔ Dynamic hinge for precise offloading
✔ Adjustable while worn by the patient

This innovative orthosis can support patients with osteoarthritis, genu varum, genu valgum, and knee instability.

Patients with diabetes frequently develop complications affecting the lower extremities, including neuropathy and gait instability.

Orthotic devices can help clinicians manage these risks by:
• Supporting proper ankle and foot positioning
• Offloading vulnerable soft tissue
• Promoting safer ambulation

On American Diabetes Alert Day, it’s an important reminder that early orthotic intervention can play a key role in maintaining mobility and preventing secondary complications for patients living with diabetes.

❓ When should a patient be prescribed an orthotic device?

Many clinicians ask this question when managing conditions that affect mobility or joint stability.

Orthotic intervention may be beneficial when patients experience:
• Joint instability or deformity
• Pain during ambulation
• Neuromuscular conditions affecting gait

Introducing orthotics at the right stage of treatment can help support alignment, improve mobility, and complement rehabilitation strategies.

Mobility challenges often stem from biomechanical imbalances that place excess stress on joints and surrounding structures.

Orthotic devices help address these issues by supporting proper alignment and stabilizing the lower extremity during movement. When properly prescribed and fitted, orthoses can:

• Improve gait mechanics
• Reduce stress on compromised joints
• Support safer ambulation during rehabilitation

For patients recovering from injury or managing chronic conditions, these biomechanical improvements can play an important role in restoring functional movement and maintaining independence.

Orthotic devices support far more than a single diagnosis.

Clinicians frequently prescribe orthoses to help manage conditions that affect mobility and joint stability, including neurological disorders, musculoskeletal injuries, and progressive joint deformities.

By improving alignment and supporting functional movement, orthotic devices can help patients maintain safer ambulation throughout rehabilitation and recovery.

Static progressive elbow positioning should be precise yet practical.

The EMO™ (Elbow Management Orthosis) offers infinite static-progressive ROM positioning from 0° to 110° in a low-profile design that eliminates medial upright impingement. The single dorsal upright and wrap-around closure simplifies fitting while maintaining necessary immobilization and stretch.

Ideal for:
• Musculoskeletal injury immobilization
• Post-Botox or serial cast management
• CVA, TBI, SCI, CP, and MS rehabilitation

Material selection directly affects the safety and performance of orthotic devices, as some thermoplastics used in orthotics can release harmful compounds when reheated during fitting adjustments.

Anatomical Concepts, Inc. does not use PVC-based plastics, Kydex®, or latex in products that require heat modification.

For providers, this supports:
• Reduced exposure risk
• Safer custom fitting
• Reliable structural integrity

Our orthotic systems are designed with both performance and clinical safety in mind. Read more here: https://hubs.ly/Q043rfR40

Prescribing orthotic devices requires more than selecting the right clinical solution. It also means understanding insurance requirements.

Coverage for AFOs, KAFOs, and other orthotic systems often depends on:

• Clear documentation of medical necessity
• Pre-authorization compliance
• Working with recognized providers

Anatomical Concepts, Inc. designs customizable orthotic systems for lower and upper extremities and provides product documentation support to help streamline submissions.

A recent Prosthetics and Orthotics report from Research and Markets outlines several drivers shaping the orthotics market.

With global aging populations and rising osteoarthritis prevalence, orthotic intervention is increasingly being used for long-term mobility preservation, not just acute injury care. For physicians, therapists, and orthotists, this reinforces the growing role of orthoses in comprehensive musculoskeletal management.

Anatomical Concepts, Inc. provides customizable AFO, KAFO, and knee orthosis systems designed to support joint alignment, ambulation, and improved patient outcomes.

Diabetes-related amputations are rising rapidly, according to a 2026 Prosthetics and Orthotics Market report. As these numbers climb, so does the need for effective lower‑extremity support.

Left unmanaged, diabetic neuropathy can lead to serious complications like foot ulcers and even amputation. At Anatomical Concepts, Inc., we're committed to helping patients reduce these risks with lower‑limb orthotic solutions designed to support mobility, stability, and long‑term foot health.

While treatments like medication and exercise play an important role, supplementing them with ankle foot orthoses (AFOs) can help minimize pain, improve mobility, and protect the feet from further injury.
