Any Prosthetists In Our Ranks?
I have a question with regard to amputee Eve's prosthetics. In all of her videos featuring her putting on her leg she just seems to step into it, adjust her clothing and away she goes. No liner, no stump wrapping or valve, she just puts it on like a shoe and it stays put! How is that possible, especially as she has quite a short stump?

She has no stump. She wears a corset to which the prosthesis is attached. Every step right foot she sits on this stool. Read about prosthetics disarticulation. Such Affairs colleague.

I suspect you are talking about about Eva NOT Eve. Eve is a high RAK, not a HD. See the attached picture which, on reflection, I should have posted with my original message.

If you're talking about Eve Wags, there is only a vacuum and nothing else.

Thanks for that. Yes I'm talking about Eve Wags and I know there's only suction. What I'm baffled by is that she doesn't have to use a bandage, sleeve or (apparently) any form of valve. All of which being surprising in itself but especially for someone with a relatively short stump.

I think it's just a camera job or a demonstration for my boyfriend. The prosthesis will not hold without proper fastening. My girlfriend has a stump even shorter than Eva and for his secure attachment to walk she has the whole procedure of his dressing.Taffdev wrote: ↑08 Jan 2019, 18:11Thanks for that.
