Dear Colleagues,
A quick search revealed a similar post 3 to 4 yrs ago but I couldn't find
the results.
I have a patient who wants his 3R80 cosmetically covered. Not my preference,
but I understand the request. Can you share your best solutions for applying
a foam cover (or similar) over the 3R80 without significantly limiting knee
function? I'm curious about the continuous covers with the perforated knee
section from DAW or TehLin? Or a discontinuous cover would be acceptable as
well, but I don't have experience doing these. Recommended actions?
Thanks in advance!
