Dear Colleagues,
I am looking for a CP with experience harnessing and cabling of AE prostheses
in the Des Monies area. Would like them to re-harness and re-cable a
patient's current prosthesis to improve function and efficiency. ie:
reposition forearm lift tab, reroute cable to prevent dragging across humeral
section of socket, Teflon cable, anchor cable retainer plates with copper
rivets, reset harness and shoulder saddle, and etc.
I feel this prosthesis can be made more functional by incorporating basic
upper extremity harnessing and cabling principles. Patient is an experienced
user of many decades.
Let me know if you can help.
