FAQs
Why does the amputation level matter for this prosthesis?
Below-elbow and above-elbow prostheses have different fitting and component requirements. Describe the limb level and intended tasks so the requested socket and system can be specified appropriately.
Can a laminated socket be used with any terminal device?
The prosthetist must check the proposed component and control arrangement. Ask for compatibility to be confirmed for the selected hand, hook, wrist or elbow rather than assuming interchangeability.
What should a clinic provide for a fabrication discussion?
Include the limb level, intended control system, component references and socket requirements. Confirm the required limb-shape records and the fitting and rehabilitation responsibilities.
