I’m sure I’ve got some stuff somewhere on this TD since I actually got to
work for a little while at the Shriners Hosp in LA which is where the
originally UCLA based CAPP people are now. I’m not sure if anyone there
is on line, but there’s a BE prosthetist there (Dave Craft) whose used the
CAPP TD for years and the OT there (and her name has dropped off my RAM
memory) has been there since the development of the device. I’ll dig up
what I’ve got and pass it along – give me a week or so…
