The JRRD
Readers should note that not every issue of the
JRRD
has as many research findings relevant to P&O practice as the July/August 2004 issue discussed in this month's Corner. But, it remains the single best source to find P&O-related studies, and this publication should therefore be in the stack of "bedside reading" each CPO tries to digest on a regular basis, along with the
Journal of Prosthetics & Orthotics
and
Prosthetics & Orthotics International
. I would estimate that two thirds of the issues have material that will be helpful to P&O clinicians, and close to half will have more than one article of special interest.
Interested readers can go to the
JRRD web site
, to subscribe or to search and download archived articles. There is no charge for these services.

Re: Rigid Dressings vs. IPOPs????
The response to such queries might get a better response on the List-Serve but readers are welcome to share their thoughts in this forum too. To the best of my knowledge, the original proponents of immediate fittings never advocated more t... read more
