Subject: active flexion brace
Is there such a thing as an active flexion brace? I couldn't find anything on it. The patient is postoperative from a left total knee arthroplasty and the doctor states she has what sounds like an active flexion brace. tia.

This is probably really basic and dumb but here goes: I have always typed normal active bowel sounds. Now that I have ASR, it is often typed as normoactive. Is this also correct and/or preferred? Or is it incorrect and not really a word at all?
