Dear Colleagues:

I am working with a young patien/client, male, 3 years old, with a short
above elbow traumatic amputation. The boy is very smart and the doctor
prescribed a functional AE prosthesis. By your experience, what kind of
elbow and hand should I use and what are my options in terms of pediatric
manufacturer and components for such a case? What can we expect interms of
function? Is there any video avaliable with pediatric patiens using UL
prosthesis?
 Any imput will be more than welcome!!
Thanks in advance,
