Subject: Suspension sleeves=20
I hark back to the time when BK suspension sleeves were used without =
suction valves. They were somewhat tougher than the “air seal-Saran =
Wrap” styles that are available today. They provided a circumferential =
compressive grip that actively held the prosthesis on the amputee’s =
residuum and thigh anatomy. I’m seeking a sleeve that will hold up to a =
rigorous outdoor profession, a lumberjack, who still daily topples, =
limbs and skids trees out of the woods. (No, he will not switch =
suspensions.) Can any of you learned professionals tell me where I can =
still purloin such a sleeve?=20
