What are the disadvantages to a a seal in system for suspension?
Give this one a try later!
More difficult to control volume with socks, must have good balance to
don prosthesis, requires exact fit
,What is the cause of tibial tubercle/proximal fibular head redness
Give this one a try later!
Too many socks- reduce sock ply
What does lowering the CAS do to the upper limb cabling system
Give this one a try later!
Creates more excursion within the system
What is the cause and solution to a patient with
Give this one a try later!
Lack of ischial containment, lack of proximal control causing femur to
adduct in socket
Solution- pad medially, until ischium is contained and if this is not possible,
re make socket
What are the disadvantages to an ischial containment socket?
Give this one a try later!
, Higher trimlines, pressure on ischium
Define a K2 patient and the available componentry
Give this one a try later!
Ability/potential to ambulate over uneven terrain at a fixed cadence
Feet: Multiaxial, flexible keel, single axis with multi-axial
Knee= Single axis, weight activated stance control
What is the cause and solution to an upper limb patient with the TD opening with
elbow flexion
Give this one a try later!
Too much force/not enough excursion in system
Solution: Move EFA (Elbow Flexion attachment) distal, move Proximal
Baseplate Retainer(PBPR) Lateral, Anterior, Proximally, Add forearm lift
assist, check housing clearance, add rubber band
What are the disadvantages to a sub-ischial socket
Give this one a try later!
Requires more volitional control, rotational issues
