Dear List Memebrs

 I have a bilateral BK amputee ( K3, 65 years , Male) who has been using
Prep. Prosthesis for five months. Needs new prosthesis.

Patient has been using Ossure Sure flex with Prep prosthesis. Walks without
using any crutch or cane, has good balance.( Uses his prosthesis form 8am
--8 pm) Patient says that he is not comfortable on uneven terrain and small
slopes.

Do you think he could be benefit more with C-walk/Trias or anything
similar. If yes, what would be the advantages.over Sure Flex???

Thanks
