The document describes the initial alignment parameters for various stump lengths in prosthetic fitting, detailing flexion angles, placements, and orientations of the prosthetic components. It categorizes stumps into short, medium, and long based on their anatomical lengths and specifies corresponding adjustments for optimal alignment. Key considerations include medial and lateral alignments, flexion angles, and adjustments for different heel heights.
