Title:
Shock and Torque absorbing pylons
Text:
Mark Raabe submitted a post about shock pylons.
That was to be my next post (Benefits of shock and torque absorbing
pylons-should we be using more of them)so I am glad that others are thinking
that these are important concerns in modern prosthetics and also look forward
to hearing responses.
I am aware of limited studies on a few of the older shock pylons and have
asked people at Northwestern University if there were more studies on the
way. I have asked a similar question about ankle motion.
Of course, I would like to be aware of ongoing studies worldwide.
These are two subjects where research/and observed clinical
results/individual pt experience, would be valuable to share with the whole
professional community
