A prosthetic harness adaptation.

A prosthetic harness adaptation was used with four burn patients with below-elbow amputations. Severe restriction of shoulder and trunk mobility made it impossible for these patients to don and doff their prostheses using the traditional figure-of-eight harness. The adaptation enabled the patients to enlarge the harness for donning and doffing and to tighten it for use.
