Élisabeth Leblanc, MD MSc FRCSC

Professeur agrégé, Faculté de médicine at des Sciences da la Santé - Université de Sherbrooke

Dr. Leblanc will share her experience with DF2, the approval process in her hospital and what she has learned so far about the indications.

The DF2® Brace is an innovative solution for femur (thigh) fractures that redefines the way fractures are treated. Unlike traditional hip spica casts, the DF2® Brace offers a range of advantages that prioritize both comfort and effective healing. Designed to provide superior comfort and convenience, this remarkable device allows for dressing changes, comfortable positional adjustments (like sitting), and effortless toiletry needs. Its unique feature of adjustable compression ensures that it stays securely in place throughout the entire treatment period, eliminating worries of loosening, a common issue with traditional casts.
