Hi Andrew, my tech never finished. I hope to get to the rest of it soon. He was supposed to do it all, but quit filming. Next one I make. We don't do many of these.
my brothers leg is amputated....and except thumb..other fingers are lost...do u have any suggestion for him...how can we he walk properly..can u please send me ur email id...I will send photo of leg
I prefer subtalar valgus or varus as terminology to inversion and eversion. I feel those are dynamic presentations in gait, and I believe we are talking static alignment. I correct significant malalignment, more than a few degrees, with a cast saw or band saw to the negative model. Minor alignment issue can be corrected on the positive.
It is much more difficult to correct on a positive model than a negative. I always correct the negative to avoid trying to correct the positive. If I, or my technicians, forget to correct it we will typically recast the positive and correct that new impression. You can correct the positive, but there is a lot of guesswork if it is more than a little.

I make cuts below the maleoli, wedging wider on the lateral to correct varus, medial for valgus. I then rotate cast to obtain a vertical heel then staple.
Hi , it would be a good idea to give the cast some 5 degrees of dorsi flexion to significantly relieve at toe off ☺. What do you think ? I do it this way .
I use a much shorter cast for a toe filler. This is our technique for a toe filler, tubercle height Prosthesis, indicated for partial foot where there is more than just the toes amputated.
+Enza Morris ...I think the compresor and radio. Great work Kevin but i got to tell yah, I got to debate about your nephew being the best hands of the world. :) I love this job even though I'm not working as a OT anymore. :( GOD BLESS YOU GUYS AND THE JOB YA'LL MAKING.
As an aspiring prosthetist & orthotist,I really enjoy watching these videos.Much love from Pakistan 💖
Glad you like them!
Kevin;
Love your stuff! Thanks for making your videos available for all to see. But where is the second part to this one??
Good job
Can we apply ankle joint so that the ankle motions can be restored for normal gait.
That would change the design and rationale for using this design. A hinged version would defeat the purpose of this design.
@@AdvancedOrthopedic thank you for your quick response ❤
Hi Androw, could you recommend me books about orthotic fabrication?

@md shahin alam Hi Shahin
Where is part 3??
Hi , it would be a good idea to give the cast some 5 degrees of dorsi flexion to significantly relieve at toe off ☺. What do you think ? I do it this way .
I typically make AFOs in slight dorsiflexion. I like to place the anatomic knee center anterior to the ankle center.
Did you make a full lower leg cast because you are also making an AFO? If you are just making a toe filler can you make a shorter cast?

whwre is the second part ?
What is all that noise , its hard to listen to you...
