I have a patient who is interested in using a conventional elbow other than the Hosmer E400 or Otto Bock Ergo-Arm. He does heavy manual work around his property, including using an axe to split wood, etc. Secure and reliable locking and unlocking of the elbow is a priority. He is fit with a suction Trans Humeral socket, with laminated forearm and standard terminal device.
I would appreciate receiving advice on alternatives, and their relative merits compared to the two mentioned elbows.
Sincerely,
Geoff Hall, C.P. ( c )
