Orthoses use the principle of creep or stress relaxation to increase the passive range of motion (ROM) of the joint, and play an important role in the rehabilitation of post-traumatic elbow dysfunction. Orthotics should follow basic design and application principles. Clinical experience and research have shown that through reasonable design and application, orthoses can effectively improve the ROM of post-traumatic elbow stiffness.
