I'm sure we could ask our doc's on the MAB what it's status is...I believe it was a cuff that was allready available... marge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 5, 2008 Report Share Posted January 5, 2008 In Seattle, Dr. Hoover-Fong was doing tests for the new cuff on different types of dwarfs (it was initially designed for achons). For non-achons, it was giving mixed results. My reading was 65/40, which is either close to being dead, or that of an infant (I'm DD by the way).
