Marybro, thanks a mill. I went with Henry�s suggestion. It seems to be more common. I also thank Tadzio, Gerardo and Yazmin for the wonderful suggestions.

Hi Xen..I speak from a consumer/user perspective. I have been going to an orthodist all my life who makes my orthosis (singular)/orthoSES(pl), also called orthotics. Health insurance plans use both words orthosis(SES)/orthotic(s)when I file claims.
Henry Hinds Jul 25, 2005:
En efecto, Xenia, hubo una pregunta al respecto hace poco (al rev�s) y comprob� "ortesis" en esa ocasi�n, siendo la palabra original. A partir de ah� ya forma parte de mi "memory treasure" sin el cual no valdr�a nada.
Non-ProZ.com Jul 25, 2005:
Marybro and Henry: Is it possible that you give me your references since you both spell the word differently? I would be for ever thankful if this is possible. If the word is simply known to you and you have it in your "memory treasure," it is okay too.

orthotic:An orthopedic appliance designed to straighten or support a body part.

Las ortosis o soportes apoyan el tobillo y el pie o se extienden sobre la rodilla. Las ortosis de los tobillos y pies se recetan a veces para usarse durante la noche, para evitar que el pie apunte hacia abajo mientras duerme el niño.
