Socket technologies | A holistic view

A good socket as a prerequisite for mobility. Non-amputees move best with the right footwear. Amputees move best with the right socket. This training provides an entertaining bird's eye view of central topics in the field of socket technologies, illustrates what makes a good socket and sensitizes to the needs of amputees.

Therapy for Transradial Body-Powered Users

This video-tutorial supports CPOs and occupational therapists regarding the therapay and rehabilitation of users with above-elbow Body-Powered arm prostheses. They are guided through the therapy and training sessions step by step: From the assessment to the the therapy and rehabilitation part and finally ending with the quality check. Refers to steps 2, 6 and 7 of the treatment cycle of the Ottobock Body-Powered Education Concept.

Meridium

Meridium - Safety Mode

In safety mode (for example, when the battery is drained) the Meridium switches to individually set resistances for Plantar and DF. The standing stop is not available. The values ​​set by the OT should provide a compromise between statics and dynamics. This video shows the impact and training of walking in safety mode, on level surfaces, on ramps and on stairs.

Meridium - MyModes

The Meridium has MyModes for special types of movement (e.g., golf, ...). These are preset via the adjustment software by the orthopedic technician. This video shows the change of the MyMode using the movement pattern and as an example the use of a home trainer.

Stance Flexion Resistance

X-Soft recommends a value for the stance flexion resistance based on the user data that was entered. Work together with the user to further refine this value.

Kenevo

Activity Mode C

Mode C is appropriate for users who have moderate control over their residual limb, can handle a variety of everyday situations and can walk short to medium distances outdoors. The stance phase is not locked but exhibits a high level of damping. The swing phase can be released earlier, which promotes more dynamic movements. The stance phase flexion damping has to be customized in advance.
