  • Title: The effect of bracing on the collateral ligaments of the knee.
    Author: Baker BE.
    Journal: Clin Sports Med; 1990 Oct; 9(4):843-51. PubMed ID: 2265441.
    Abstract:
    Disruption of the ligamentous structures of the knee is commonly seen in competitive sports. The role of prophylactic and functional bracing is controversial. Currently, prophylactic bracing has not been shown, conclusively, to be protective. Functional braces appear to have a capacity to provide some protective effect.
