FW: Help in Identifying Foot

Herb Shalant

Maybe this is for “old-timers” only.

I have a transtibial amputee patient with an exoskeletal prosthesis from
Krakow Poland who is wearing a single axis foot that is crumbling and all
taped up. I am therefore hesitant about un-taping it to better identify it.

It has a single bolt attachment to the foot but otherwise looks like an
Otto Bock 1H37 foot. I believe all their single axis foot adapters use 2
bolts to attach the foot. This only has 1 bolt. With that distinction in
mind, does anybody know which prosthetic company might have made (and still
does) a similar foot to replace this one without doing a whole ankle block
replacement, re-alignment and re-lamination?

There’s no money to do any major work on this prosthesis.

Thanks to anyone who can help.
