🗑
show builds up soles allows more push off in weak or inflexible feet used for metatarsalgia and with weak plantarflexion  
🗑
Solid AFO   show

show used for patients with T9-12 level of spinal cord lesion or spina bifida lesion usually with children  
🗑
ParaWalker THKAFO   show
🗑
Toronto hip/Scottish Rite HO   show
🗑
scoliosis orthoses   show
🗑
milwalkee orthoses- scoliosis   show
🗑
Boston orthoses-scoliosis   show
🗑
At what level would a wrist driven tenodesis orthosis be used   show
🗑
Transmetatarsal amputation   show
🗑
Syme's amputation   show
🗑
show long BTK more than 50% of tibia is left standard BTK 20-50% tibia is left short BTK less than 20 % is left  
🗑
show amputation through the knee with the femur intact  
🗑
show long AKA more than 60% of femur is left ideal AKA 35-60% of femur short AKA less than 35% of femur left  
🗑
Hip disarticulation   show
🗑
show resection of the lower half of the pelvis  
🗑
Hemicorporectomy   show
🗑
show amputation through the wrist jt  
🗑
Transradial   show
🗑
show amputation through the elbow  
🗑
show Above elbow (AE) amputation  
🗑
Shoulder disarticulation   show
🗑
Post-op amputation dressing- ridgid   show
🗑
post-op amputation dressing - soft   show
🗑
show can be fitted as soon as the wound is healed shrinks residual limb more effectively allows for early ambulation normally used for younger candidates whose amputation was not a result of vascular disease  
🗑
show socket and terminal device  
🗑
show custom molded to the residual limb with total contact and full load distribution with the goals of assisting circulation and providing maximum sensory feedback  
🗑
show provide soft interface between the residual limb and socket used to accommodate for changing residual limb volume should not exceed 15 ply thickness for proper fit and weight bearing of the socket  
🗑
show functions to provide an interface between the prosthesis and the external environment for LE prosthesis it is the foot for UE prosthesis it is the hook/hand  
🗑
partial foot prostheses   show
🗑
what does a Below-Knee prostheses consist of   show
🗑
foot ankle assembly for BKA   show
🗑
show SACH foot (Solid Ankle Cushion Heel) SAFE foot (Stationary attachment flexible endoskeleton) Seattle foot Fex-foot (Springlite foot)  
🗑
SACH foot   show
🗑
SAFE foot   show
🗑
show -slightly flexible plastic keel bends at heel contact -keel stores energy and recoils in latte stance releasing energy for springy termination to stance -disadvantage: heavier than SACH foot  
🗑
show -includes a long band of carbon fiber material, which extends from the toe to the proximal shank and to the posterior heel section -the long bands acts as a leaf spring, enabling the foot to store energy in early and mid stance and the release it in late  
🗑
show single-axis foot multi-axis foot  
🗑
single-axis foot   show
🗑
multi-axis foot   show
🗑
show -provides leg length and shape -transmits weight from socket to foot -exoskeletal-usually made of wood with a plastic laminate finish that can be colored to match the skin-very durable -endoskeletal-central aluminum or rigid plastic pylon covered with  
🗑
show patellar-tendon bearing (PTB) -total contact socket that allows for maximum distribution of the load and assistance in venous blood circulation -provides tactile feedback  
🗑
Socket Reliefs   show
🗑
Socket built-ups   show
🗑
Suspension   show
🗑
What types of suspension are there   show
🗑
show -medial and lateral walls of the socket extend up and cover the femoral condyles -a removable medial wedge is placed between the socket and the medial epicondyle -more cosmetic with no buckles and increases mediolateral stability  
🗑
show -similar to the SC with the addition of an anterior wall, which terminates above the patella -used for SHORT RESIDUAL LIMBS -may interfere with kneeling and is very visible when sitting  
🗑

🗑
show -enables to bend the knee when sitting and during ambulation -single axis -polycentric system (multiaxial) -friction mechanism -hydraulic knee units  
🗑
show permits knee motion around a fixed axis -knee flexion is needed during late stance and swing phase -knee locks in extension for heel strike and foot flat  
🗑
Polycentric system knee unit   show
🗑
Friction mechanism knee unit   show
🗑
Hydraulic knee units   show
🗑
show -many knee units have a mechanism to assist knee extension during the latter part of swing phase -elastic webbing located in front of the knee unit stretches during knee flexion (early swing)and recoils to extend the knee(late swing) -an internal exten  
🗑
mechanical stabilizer   show
🗑
show -designed to be a total contact device that emphasizes loading on PRESSURE TOLERANT structures such as the ischial tuberosity, gluteal muscles, lateral side of the thigh and to a lesser extent the distal end of the amputation -it limits the load on the P  
🗑
show -MOST COMMONLY USED FOR AKA -uses a horizontal posterior shelf to support the ischial tuberosity and gluteals -the medial wall is the SAME height as the posterior wall while the anterior and lateral walls are 2.5-3" higher -reliefs are provided for th
