This article describes the use of elastic stockinette for residual limb with no bony prominence. The residual limbs after transtibial or Syme's amputations are managed with removable rigid dressings, which will be described later. Elastic stockinette Elastic stockinette is commercially available in the U.S.A. and Europe (Compresso-grip, by KNIT-RITE Co., 1-800-823-3094, or Tubigrip, 1-800-253-0684). It comes in rolls of various widths and can be cut in any length for any shape of residual limbs. In the low-income countries, with minimal set up of a knitting machine, production of elastic stockinette can be made locally. Elastic stockinette can easily be stretched onto the residual limbs. The degree of compression is dependent upon how much it is stretched and how many layers are applied. Desired gradient pressure can be achieved by applying layers of elastic stockinette with various lengths. In order to avoid excessive pressure, the elastic stockinette is added gradu

glissement, you won't get what you need. You need to limit your results to those that are relevant to your topic by adding associated terms to your search. Try the two words "glissement" and "knee" (without the quotes). There will be a lot of results in French, but even if you can't read French, you will be able to see that they are relevant to your topic. There are, however, a few that use "glissement" in an English context, which should give you more confidence. In any event, it's your initials on the report, so you handled it in the way that is most comfortable for you. I could be wrong, of course, but I suspect that it will turn out to be "glissement".

trademark or register information from the manufacturer does not make it Nitropaste but rather nitro (glycerin) paste. Just my opinion. There ARE registered names for nitro paste but this I believe is doc slang for generic nitroglycerin paste.
