John Michael's Corner Welcome to the intersection of orthotics and prosthetics in cyberspace!
This month's Corner features two very simple, low cost, approaches to assisting orthotic patients who have lower limb paresis.

Additional chapters from the Spanish language textbooks are also now available for downloading.

Thanks to the generosity of Sr. Alberto Castillo from Mexico City, the articles in this Corner will now be available in Spanish too. A brief biography is posted, listing just a few of Sr. Castillo's many accomplishments. Additional chapters from the texts on lower limb prosthetics and orthotics that have been translated into Spanish are also available for downloading.

Please feel free to leave your comments and suggestions regarding this information in our guest book . If you would like to be notified by e-mail whenever this corner is updated, please become a registered user of oandp.com .

This month's Corner includes the next installment of uploads of chapters from the entire Spanish language texts on Lower Limb Orthoses and Lower Limb Prostheses, for downloading or printing. CPO Services is very pleased to be able to post electronic versions of texts used in the former WHO school in the Dominican Republic, with the kind permission of Sidney Fishman, PhD.

I hope you have enjoyed some of the information posted in this monthly Corner. Please leave your comments and suggestions for improvements or topics in the Guest Book .

Thank you.

Orlando Academy Meeting - Rheo?
Are you able to provide any information about the Ossur "Rheo" knee (workshop 20) that took place at the meeting on March 20th? Thank you.

Re: Orlando Academy Meeting - Rheo?
I was unable to attend that workshop because I was conducting the training for Horton's Stance Control Orthotic Knee Joint, but I understand that the topic was changed to OSSUR's new Ceterus foot and the knee was not mentioned. --John Mich... read more
