I am interested in getting options for providing ML stability for a BK
pt. who currently wears a joint/leather corset. The corset does not
need to un-weight the residual limb, but is essential for ML stability.
I remember seeing an ad for a laminated structure, similar to a knee
orthosis, that was attached proximal to a BK socket. Can anyone help me
contact companies that provide such a device?
