Prerequisite: OR-PR 141 (SFCC)
-
10.00 Credits
The student fabricates the metal framework of the lumbo-sacral orthosis, learn to cover a LS orthosis with leather, and fabricate a thoraco-lumbar orthosis and cover with leather. Prerequisite: OR-PR 141, 142. (SFCC)
-
3.00 Credits
In order to fabricate effective shoe modification and orthoses for control of the ankle and foot, a student will aquire a basic understanding of the foot-ankle skeletal structures. Prerequisite: OR-PR 141, 142, 144. (SFCC)
-
4.00 Credits
