Ottobock EMS Multi-Surface Flexible Inner Socket
Inner socket system used with Harmony vacuum volume management system
Inner socket system used with Harmony vacuum volume management system to enhance lower limb prosthesis fit and control. Requires a vacuum socket system such as Harmony.
Product features/benefits:
Reduces limb volume fluctuations and improves moisture control by maintaining a constant, more uniform pressure as part of Harmony active vacuum system.
Active vacuum improves control of prosthesis through all phases of ambulation in both weight-bearing and non weight bearing activities.
Enhanced proprioception and spatial awareness for improved balance and stability
EMS allows lower rigid socket trim lines for increased range of motionReduced wear on sleeve due to soft inner socket material and lower rigid socket
The flexible supracondylar design and corrugated inner surface improves the coefficient of friction 400% to enhance control and connection to the prosthesis.
Our patient Randy shows us how he gets ready in the morning with his elevated vacuum system and EMS socket design. The vacuum squeezes the flexible inner socket, allowing for more flexibility, stability, and the feeling of a better connected prosthetic. Since getting the EMS system, Randy is very active, he enjoys skiing, biking, water skiing, and running!
