Application aids for
transfemoral prostheses
Easy and comfortable fit in your above-knee prosthetic leg
Arion Proth-Pro - Textile application aid for a transfemoral prosthesis featuring a suction socket and a valve hole
Donning sleeve for a better contact between residual limb and prosthesis
Putting on a transfemoral prosthesis is a daily routine task that can be very tedious. The better a prosthesis embraces the residual limb, the better it can support the prosthesis wearer. Since the prosthesis and residual limb are closely connected, there is a lot of friction during the donning process, which makes it difficult to put the prosthesis on and may cause a lot of physical strain on the arms, hands and shoulders. In addition, the skin of the residual limb is thin and particularly sensitive, so it does not tolerate much friction. Enough reasons to ensure that the residual limb is enclosed painlessly and stably by the prosthesis.
The Arion Proth-Pro donning aid is easy to use and is made of a smooth, soft but durable material that optimally reduces friction between the residual limb and the transfemoral prosthesis. This contributes to create a better contact between residual limb and prosthesis and therefore to a more comfortable fit into your prosthesis.
