Growth Prosthetics

Zurück Download

Skeletal development in adolescent amputees does not stop, resulting in annual height changes. Underage patients must replace prosthetics yearly, wasting resources and incurring high costs. The Growth Prosthetics addresses this with an extendable, adjustable design structure that also incorporates expandable foot sizing. This innovation prolongs prosthetic use, providing consistent support to accompany teenagers with disabilities through their growth.
