I was called to evaluate a post polio patient at a hospitall
inpatient therapy department nearby. The PT with a masters degree
asked my recommendation for the 82 year old gent with 40 degrees of
recurvatum seconday to hamstring quad weakness and a 20 degree fixed
plantarflexion. Only to suffix his request for the eval by saying
and if you think he will fit into a bledsoe sportsbrace we can fit
and bill this here
Aren't people funny
Needless to say he was put into a KAFO with dial locks and a 1 inch
lift and is doing very well now with a walker
