Assessing fit of Orthoses and Prostheses

Gerardo Hernandez

Dear list members:

I am searching for articles (current) and any information on assessing the
fit of orthoses and prostheses. Particularly, what patients and their
caregivers should be looking for when problems with fit start arising due to
growth, atrophy or contractures. Also, general guidelines as to problem
areas (i.e., malleoli, crests, etc.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Short of general guidelines from the
Atlases, I haven’t found any recent articles or info.

Thanks
