Dear list,
I am trying to collect some statistics and had hoped that you might be willing to help me!
I am seeking the following measurements from as many individuals as possible and hope that each one of you (in a position to do so) could record them from your next 10 (or more) trans-tibial primary amputees.
ML diameter at the knee
Length of stump Mid Patellar Tendon to distal end
Circumferences from Mid Patellar Tendon and at 1″ (25mm) intervals distally.
Please send the information to me by e-mail, fax or snail mail. Your assistance in this exercise is greatly appreciated. Anonymity will be preserved
