Fwd: pediatric wrist

C McConnell

Dear List Members:

My colleagues and I are currently working on a pediatric very short
transradial case. The patient is a 6 year old boy who is very active.
Until now he has been using a passive fist terminal device and has broken
the delrin wrist unit. We are making him a new prosthesis and would like
to be able to offer him interchangeability of TDs. My questions are: 1.
What wrist units have you found to be light, easy to use and durable? 2.
Is there a pediatric QD wrist?

Thank you very much,

Catherine McConnell C.P.(c)
