Prosthetist,
I have a BK patient that is an avid outdoorsman and recently experianced extreme cold weather while on a hunt and is looking for ways to keep his limb warm. Apparently this last time out was very concerning for him due to how cold his limb got. He dresses appropriately and lives high in the mountains so he is use to these conditions. I am curious if anyone has used electric boot heaters, warming packs, ext. Thanks in advance.
