Posted By: Paul Mathewson on August 12, 2016
All, I have developed an orthopedic device designed to resist rotation in a joint (see Journal of Prosthetics and Orthotics 15:1 2003 for description). It is constructed from fabric only and has no hard structural elements. I am not very familiar with L-code particulars, but many seem to have hinges, struts or other rigid components. Can anyone provide guidance about whether there might be an L-code which could be used for an all-fabric device which has a functional bracing capability? Is there a person who is familiar with the L-code world with whom I could have a conversation? Also, what distinguishes an L-code from an A-code. Thanks very much. Paul Mathewson, Ph.D. |
