    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic biomechanics
    • Sports medicine
    • Rehabilitative technology

    Background:

    • Alpine skiing demands high levels of lower extremity stability and control.
    • Existing orthotic solutions may not adequately address the specific biomechanical needs of competitive skiers.
    • The development of specialized functional orthoses is crucial for injury prevention and performance enhancement.

    Observation:

    • A novel functional orthosis incorporating a stabilizing pelvic band was designed.
    • The orthosis includes dynamic abduction and external rotation check straps for enhanced control.
    • A case report details the application and observation of this specialized equipment.

    Findings:

    • The designed orthosis provides targeted support to the pelvic region.

  • Dynamic check straps offer adjustable control over abduction and external rotation, critical movements in Alpine skiing.
  • Initial observations suggest potential for improved joint stabilization and skier confidence.

    • Implications:

    • This functional orthosis may offer a new approach to managing ski-related injuries.
    • The design could enhance performance by improving biomechanical efficiency and stability.
    • Further clinical studies are warranted to validate the efficacy and long-term benefits for Alpine skiers.
