Dear list members,
I am looking for non anecdotal documentation to enhance our Physical
therapists clinical pathway for amputees. I recollect the Vet' Admin'
having basic criteria after a web search a few years back but now I
can't find the info' on their web anywhere.
It was independent sit to stand with a walking frame, then walking 10
steps only with the frame. Presumably that allows an amputee to be an
exercise ambulator.
Thanks in advance,
John Polglase.
