- Brace compliance - patients will have a temperature logger placed in the shoes of the Dennis-Browne Bar at the initial fitting visit in the Orthotics department. At every subsequent clinic follow-up visit the Orthotist downloads the time/temperature data onto a laptop from the sensor reader (A piece of computer hardware which the sensor clips into and is attached to the laptop via the USB port). The Orthotist will then reset the temperature logger discs in order to monitor the next period of brace wear.
