Title:
short AK
Text:
i have been asked to evaluate a 'very short bilateral AK amputee' for early
stump management - rehab. staff have difficulty wrapping the residual limbs &
shrinkers don't stay on - patient is ' not likely to an ambulator '
my first instinct is to have jobst make a custom garment with shoulder straps
does anyone have any other ideas that they may have tried successfully in a
similar case ?
thanks in advance
