Varos
The Varos socket is a socket solution that benefits transfemoral amputees starting in the rehabilitation phase as well as later during treatment with the final prosthesis.
One key advantage is the option to independently adapt the socket circumference to fluctuations in the volume of the residual limb and to everyday activities by simply turning the closure – exactly as needed. This offers numerous benefits in therapy and everyday life, from an enhanced feeling of safety to the potential for better movement control.

The Varos liner was developed to be compatible with the Varos socket. Contact between the Varos liner and fabric adhesive strips in the socket also results in a good adhesion mechanism for a secure hold in the socket – and the magnetic distal connector in the liner makes it even stronger. Plus, pressure distribution provided by the liner ensures good wearer comfort. The Varos socket can be fabricated in significantly less time than a conventional socket.

Thanks to the BOA Fit System, the socket circumference can be adjusted independently and at any time. This can be necessary if there are fluctuations in the residual limb volume, or to suit a particular activity. In this way, the sense of safety can be directly influenced.
Modular socket design, easy to adapt – a fitting with the Varos socket saves valuable time. The number and duration of the visits to an O&P professional for prosthesis adjustments are significantly reduced compared to treatment with conventional sockets.
The Varos socket makes it easy to put on and remove the prosthesis even while sitting. This is a huge advantage, especially for older prosthesis wearers or individuals who are affected by an amputation and have little experience in using a prosthesis.
Keeping a clear head to think about what’s next. The Varos socket makes it possible to do just this. It offers good stability and comfort for an enhanced feeling of safety. This makes it easier to concentrate on what they actually want to do.
