1.ACTIVE VACUUM – HARMONY SYSTEM BELOW KNEE PROSTHESES

Sockets with an active  vacuum system consist of a preferred material based on a soft liner (such as a polyurethane or silicone gel liner), an active vacuum mechanism in which the air inside the socket is thrown out, a special air-tight knee brace and blocking air entry into the socket. Active vacuum systems such as Harmony pump almost all of the air out between the liner and the socket. The system is adapted to the user’s activity level and needs. In addition to providing the tight connection between the socket and the prosthesis, it also balances the volume of the stump. Tight hold also positively affects the use of the prosthesis. It allows the vacuum pump to be regulated at each step depending on the step frequency and performance.
  • Compared to the Passive  Vacuum System the negative pressure created by is much stronger.
  • It helps blood circulation.
  • The perception of ground-floor (Proprioception) is extremely high.
  • The user controls the prosthesis more effectively than other socket systems.
Examples of Active Vacuum Systems;
  • Harmony P1-P2-P3 Vacuum System
  • Impulse Electronic Vacuum System
  • LimbLogic VS Electronic Vacuum System
  

2.SILICONE LINER PIN SYSTEM

The system with a silicone liner pin provides the possibility of using more longer the prosthesis. We provide the opportunity to decide according to the residual limb type, mobility level, health status, and amputation level. Our orthopedic technician will offer you the most suitable liner options. All our liner options are easy to clean. They are resistant to water, perspiration, and climatic conditions. Thanks to the system, the silicone is attached to the socket.

     The attachment of the socket to the stump in the prosthesis is a very important factor for comfort and safety. For those looking for an effective grip but also a high socket comfort, the Silicon liner pin system will be a good solution.

  • This system provides high socket comfort.
  • Protect the stump against pressure will occur at specific points.
  • Minimize friction and prevent irritation that may occur on the skin.
  • High adhesion between stump and socket provides the user with greater mobility and comfort.
    

3.MODULAR BELOW KNEE PROSTHESES

The prosthesis attachment parts are made from materials such as steel, aluminum, titanium or carbon, and are coated with a cosmetic coating on the tube and modular adapters adapted to the tube. The modular system allows all parts to be easily disassembled and replaced, the possibility of adjustment, and the replacement of the prosthesis due to changes in the stump over time. For this reason, it is both economical and has a longer service life.

 

4.PROPRIO ELECTRONIC FOOT BELOW KNEE PROSTHESES

PROPRIO ELECTRONIC FOOT is an adaptive microprocessor-controlled ankle for amputees and enables patients to have a natural walking. PROPRIO brings confidence to the foot and therefore more stable ground contact. The resulting lifelike gait reduces excessive load, especially in the waist, hip, and knee area, helping prosthetic wearers to walk longer and more comfortably.

SAFE

Motor-powered ankle motion increases toe clearance in the swing phase by raising the forefoot, reducing the risk of trips and falls. It also adjusts the ankle angle to changing terrain, providing stable foot placement on stairs and inclined surfaces.

Safety advantages:

  • Motorized ankle movement reduces the risk of falling
  • Higher security and walking quality
  • Less strain on knees, hips, and back

Automatic dorsiflexion of PROPRIO FOOT during the swinging phase helps the prosthesis to pass through the floor, paving stones and other surface irregularities actively and safely. Automatic dorsiflexion of PROPRIO FOOT during the swinging phase helps the prosthesis to pass through the floor, paving stones and other surface irregularities actively and safely.

ADAPTIVE

Automatic terrain adaptation on level-ground, ramps and stairs. PROPRIO FOOT automatically adjusts the ankle angle to changing terrain, providing stable foot placement on stairs and inclined surfaces.

Adaptive features:

  • Automatic terrain adaptation on level-ground, ramps and stairs
  • Relax-mode for comfortable sitting and chair-exit-mode for easier sit transfers

    • NATURAL

    PROPRIO FOOT, acts naturally, increasing the self-confidence of the user. As it can adapt to different shoes, it protects the symmetry and prosthesis, while at the same time it allows the shoes to be changed. It automatically flattens to the floor when the user is sitting and provides a more stable and natural look.

    Natural advantages:

    • Soft walking experience on flat ground
    • Maintains symmetry and adjustment when changing shoes

    Stand-up mode and comfortable mode

    Due to the way PROPRIO FOOT works, it is more symmetrical and aligned and as a result, the walking style is much more natural. The foot adapts quickly and easily to a large number of shoes, always perfectly aligning the feet and the process of moving the foot  is carried out even more naturally and comfortably than before. The foot also allows the big toe to drop down for a more normal look when the user is sitting.

    Patented EVO (Energy Vector Optimization) creates a smooth transition movement, making the transfer of ground reaction forces more effective, thereby helping to improve ground compatibility and wrist control.
