Trans-Femoral Socket Solutions

The prosthetic socket serves as the essential connection between the amputee's remaining limb and the prosthetic device, requiring a precise and comfortable fit to promote successful rehabilitation outcomes. Proper fitting is vital for effective load distribution, stability, and control. An optimal socket design directly impacts the amputee’s freedom of movement and overall comfort, which is essential for regular use of the prosthesis. Numerous factors contribute to enhancing comfort and control in a trans-femoral socket, with the methodologies for shape capture and socket design being critical for ensuring the patient's long-term success. 

This webinar will feature colleagues from the Global Academy, who will explore trans-femoral socket design and the interface options that may enhance patient care.
