Hello.
I am working with one of my Above knee prosthetic patient, Patient has RT
above knee amputation with long Residual limb, Presently patient is
using Temporary Prosthesis. And now I am planning for his permanent
prosthesis, Patient cant, use his Rt Hand due to paralysis, he can walk with
Prosthesis, but he had hard time donning Gel Liner, in his temporary prosthesis
we try Coyote locking suspension and then KISS locking suspension. but he
don’t like Gel liner and can’t use that suspension , what will be the best
option for suspension for him keeping in mind that he can’t use his Rt Hand?
Thanks in advance for your Suggestion,
Zia
Prosthetist.
