Anyone tried one of these for their patients that have hip issues affecting the knee. I am talking more short term use to help with pain and provide better hip position with gait.

I have not used them, but one of my co-workers has used it on several occasions. They work well with activity in individuals with hip weakness and valgus collapse at the knee with closed chain flexion.
