61. What are they? How are they made? How are they used? Templates

62. More than 800 templates available Use the Spinal Template Search feature Finding the Right Template

63. Why is a large template library important? How to make a template? Modify an existing template Save any patient file as a template Trace a modified positive model Scan a modified positive model Internally trace a spinal orthosis or inner surface of a negative wrap from a modified shape Creating Your Own Templates

75. Creating Templates

76. What is a template? – A pre-modified shape, essentially a socket shape, that is resized by applying patient measurements Clinical considerations – By Measurement vs. Shape Capture Is the patient’s residual limb uniformly contoured? Does it have an irregularly shaped distal end? Does it have a shape not represented by any of the templates available?

77. Modifying existing template files – To replace the existing template or create a new template Saving finished patient files as templates – Important to Save patient file first, then use Save Patient File as Template and name accordingly Creating Templates From an Electronic File

78. Suggested method is to have a poured model of socket you wish to make into a template Identify Anatomical Landmarks – Most important aspect to remember! – MUST be accurately identified on the model before you begin Creating Templates From a Plaster Model

79. Scan models using MODEL ONLY to bypass merging or modifications Creating Templates by Scanning

80. Take length measurement with a straight edge ruler with patient’s hip in extension While the straight edge measuring device is in place, mark levels for circumferential measurements Take & record circumferential measurements Record all measurements in the Electronic Orthometry Form (EOF) Measuring the Patient
