Can someone direct me to a U.S trained prosthetist with excellent upper limb
management skills in or near Bombay India? We have a patient that wears
conventional bilateral AE's that lives within travel distance of Bombay.
This patient is a Elbow disartic on one side wearing an external locking
hinge elbow down to a aluminum hook for a terminal device and on the other
side a long trans humeral residual limb about 2/3rds length. Positive
locking e 200 or 400 elbow to an aluminum hook terminal device . Figure of
eight harnessing with shoulder saddles.
Two prosthetists there who responded to an earlier request that i posted
seeking a qualified prosthetist resulted in one prosthetist not knowing what
to do to adjust them and the other prosthetist adjusting them and making
them less functional according to the parent.
Thanks Ron
