  • Orthotics Fact Sheet
    Foundations of Pediatric Orthotics FACT The goal of this fact sheet is to provide a reference highlighting key points of orthotic management in children. Additional information on pediatric orthotic management can be located in the Atlas of Orthoses and Assistive Devices, edited by the American Acad- emy of Orthopedic Surgeons, and Lower Extremity Orthotic Intervention for the Pediatric SHEET Client in Topics in Physical Therapy: Pediatrics, edited by the American Physical Therapy Association. What Is an Orthosis? An orthosis is an external device with controlling forces to improve body alignment, improve function, immobilize the injured area, prevent or improve a deformity, protect a joint or limb, limit or reduce pain, and/or provide proprioceptive feedback. Orthoses are named for the part of the body they cover. Orthoses can be custom molded and custom fitted (custom fitted from prefabricated orthoses or off the shelf). Orthoses are classified as durable medical devices (DME) and require L-codes for insurance reimbursement. A prescription signed by a physician is usually required for insurance reimbursement for custom-molded and custom-fit orthoses. Who Designs and Provides Orthoses? • Certified orthotists have formal education in biomechanics and mate- rial sciences required in designing custom devices. They are nation- ally board certified, and 11 states require licensure to provide custom devices. There are approximately 3,000 certified orthotists in the US, with a limited number of orthotists specializing in pediatrics. Pediatric orthotists evaluate the child, cast the child, modify the mold, fabricate the orthosis, and custom fit the orthosis to the child. • Physical therapists are trained in the function of orthoses and will frequently fit and measure orthoses.

  • The (Narrative) Prosthesis Re-Fitted Finding New Support for Embodied and Imagined Differences in Contemporary Art
    The (Narrative) Prosthesis Re-Fitted Finding New Support for Embodied and Imagined Differences in Contemporary Art Amanda Cachia Independent scholar and PhD candidate The (Narrative) Prosthesis Re-Fitted This article undertakes analyses of the contemporary American artists Robert Gober and Cindy Sherman to argue that they use the tropes of the obscene, abject, and traumatic—as discussed by Hal Foster—to make literal and metaphorical reference to David T. Mitchell and Sharon L. Snyder’s narrative prosthesis and its “truth,” while simultaneously leaving out the lived experience of disability. Consideration is given to the works of artists Carmen Papalia and Mike Parr, who use complex embodiment as a new methodology to signify empowerment and agency over what we might previously have considered the obscene, abject, or traumatic. They transform traditional understandings of the “prosthetic” within the specific rhetoric of disability. Introduction Why is it so de rigueur for contemporary artists to use disabled embodiment as a means to convey troubled emotional states, as a narrative and literal prosthesis? Narrative prosthesis is a term originally developed by David T. Mitchell and Sharon L. Snyder, where the disabled body is often inserted into literary, or in this case, visual narratives as a metaphorical opportunity. The disabled body or character is used as a type of crutch or supporting device that allows the narrative to take a turn or a new direction, but often the relationship between the story itself and the disabled body is one based on exploi- tation. “Through the corporeal metaphor,” Mitchell and Snyder articulate, “the disabled or otherwise different body may easily become a stand-in for more abstract notions of the human condition, as universal or nationally specific; thus the textual (disembodied) project depends upon—and takes advantage of—the materiality of the body” (50).

  • Para Athletics Classification Are You, Or Do You Know Someone Who May Be, Interested in Para Athletics?
    PARA ATHLETICS CLASSIFICATION ARE YOU, OR DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO MAY BE, INTERESTED IN PARA ATHLETICS? Classification determines who is eligible to compete in a Para sport and then groups the eligible athletes into sport classes according to their activity limitation in a certain sport or event. Athletes are classified as “T” (Track and Jump) or “F” (Field) based on which event they are competing in, followed by a number that represents impairment type and level of impairment. For example, T12. First Letter Represents: First Number Represents: Second Number Represents: T/F TRACK OR FIELD 1-6 IMPAIRMENT TYPE 1-8 DESCRIPTION OF IMPAIRMENT Typically T identifies a track 1 = Visual Impairment The number 1 through 8 specifies event and F for a field event. 2 = Intellectual Impairment the description of the impairment as There are certain exceptions 3 = Co-ordination Impairment per the classification rules (i.e. Long Jump is a T event) 4 = Upper Limb Deficiencies; Lower Limb Deficiencies without the use of prosthetic; short stature 5 = Impaired muscle power or range of movement 6 = Limb deficiencies with the use of prosthetic PHYSICAL IMPAIRMENT SHORT STATURE F40 F41 IMPAIRED MUSCLE POWER AND/OR PASSIVE RANGE OF MOVEMENT T/F51 T/F52 T/F53 T/F54 F55 F56 F57 Athletes who compete seated LIMB DEFICIENCY T/F42 T/F43 T/F44 T/F62 T/F63 T/F64 T/F45 T/F46 T/47 Lower limb deficiency without Lower limb deficiency with Upper limb deficiency the use of a prosthetic the use of a prosthetic with or without the use of a prosthetic ATHLETES WITH ATHETOSIS, ATAXIA AND/OR

  • Section “F” – Para Athletes Championship Competition
    Section “F” – Para Athletes Championship Competition These rules are to be read in conjunction with Section ”A" Competition General Rules, Section “B” – Track Events and Section “C” – Field Events. 1. Para Athletes 1.1 General Conditions i. Athletes with a disability qualifying in any able body event at the State Track & Field Championships will not be allowed to compete in the equivalent Para event conducted on the same program. ii. Implements shall comply with the specifications as defined by LANSW for Para events. iii. In Para field events only three trials will be allowed. iv. All LANSW and IAAF (where applicable) rules of competition shall apply except in the following instances. 1.2 Classification i. Athletes with a disability have to be formerly classified by a recognised organisation, prior to competing at the State Track & Field Championships. ii. Classification is a way of grouping athletes of similar function or ability for the purpose of competition. 1.3 Competition i. All events will be conducted as multi-disability events. Competitors will compete against a multi- disability standard (MDS) as determined by the Australian Paralympic Committee. Placings will be determined by the competitor’s time/distance calculated against a percentage of the multi-disability standard (MDS). ii. In all competitions involving throwing events athletes must use the implement weight specified for their classification/ age group, (refer Para Athletes Implement Specification Table). Note: At competition events where combined age group are conducted the competitor’s will throw the weight specified for their age group. This could result in different weight implements being used in the same event.
