  • Provide a more convenient and comfortable wearing experience. The good adsorption of the prosthetic silicone sleeve makes it soft and tightly contain the stump, reduce local pressure, provide a comfortable cushion for the sensitive area of ​​the skin, and transfer the shearing force from the skin to the The outer layer of the silicone inner liner prevents friction between the skin of the residual limb and the receiving cavity.

 

  • Increase the suspension to prevent the prosthesis from falling off. The prosthetic silicone sleeve and the receiving cavity are locked together by the locking device. The patient’s weight on the prosthesis is no longer like the feeling of hanging and shaking. Reliable suspension locks can reduce the energy consumed during long-distance walking, improve the control of the residual limbs on the prostheses, and make walking safer and gait more natural.

 

  • Reduce prosthetic diseases and better protect the residual limb. After the prosthetic silicone sleeve comfortably wraps the entire residual limb surface, it protects sensitive skin and scar tissue, promotes and improves blood circulation, reduces the abrasion caused by the edge of the receiving cavity to the skin, and effectively eliminates the operation The swelling of the hind stump keeps the stump in a healthy state. At the same time, avoid the change of the residual limb, causing piston movement between the residual limb and the receiving cavity, and reduce skin damage (friction of moles and other frequent friction can induce skin cancer)

 

  • Effectively moisturize the skin and form a protective film. The prosthetic silicone sleeve is made of hypoallergenic medical-grade environmentally friendly materials and added with active ingredients to effectively moisturize the skin and form a protective film on the skin surface to soften, relieve itching and prevent skin Allergies and help skin metabolism, etc., make the residual limbs healthier.
