Abstract
In conjunction with the therapy of orthoses, we introduced a part into the medical treatment guidelines in the field of orthopedics. The therapy of orthoses has been listed as a vulnerary treatment in the field of orthopedics for a long time, but the mainstream of orthopedics came to focus on surgical remedies, and the therapy of orthoses is now often considered a conservative treatment. There are few high clinical studies of the EBM of the therapy of orthoses, and there is little mention in the medical treatment guidelines in the field of orthopedics, either. We thought that it is a future problem to increase the number of clinical studies of the EBM about the therapy of orthoses.
