Dear List Members,
I would like to know opinions/preferences on knees for active KD. The
client is 36 y/o F, partial end bearing, K4. Congenital anomaly, amputation
@ 2 y/o. Residuum is in excellent condition, (skin integrity, musculature,
shape of limb etc.). She currently wears a laminated (no interface) T/C
socket with valve, Century Total Knee, Seattle foot. She is presently
jogging (some) on a treadmill.
Knee center is approx. 4 too low. This is obviously very awkward both
functionally and aesthetically. Any suggestions for knee or knee-foot
combination are welcome.
Thank you in advance
