I need recommendations for a 24cm foot. Pt is a 20yr old male, 61 tall and 82 lbs. He is a unilateral transtibial amputee with a 7 5/8 mature residual limb with 9 clearance. He is a moderate community ambulator, not athletic. He uses a locking gel liner in a TSB socket, pretty standard. Because I work mainly with pediatrics, I don't look at adult size K2 feet but that is what I am considering for him because energy storing feet for K3 level typically start at 100 lbs for patient weight, making them like a brick for him. I need a lightweight foot. Thoughts?
