My review of different prosthetic sockets that I tried

[@flowersst]

My husband is a recent ak amputee. We have been looking into osseointegration because the socket is so painful for him. Thank you for your wisdom and advice. We appreciate all you share. Your English is great. You are a blessing to those of us seeking real information from someone who knows both.

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

Hi and thank you so much for your comment. It is comments like this that really makes me continue whit the channel. If you are looking into osseointegration pleas also see these 2 videos: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bWPOo3h3q5V9a6s kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4mQmpiIfq6Nl9U If you are interested in my point of view of different amputee issues pleas feel free to comment them to me. All the best

Im a CPO imo osseointegration has loads of downsides also it's not suitable for an active patient cuz can lead to fracture in the near future due to the amount of weight transferred directly towards the femur.

[@HungTran-dv5me]

Majority of cpo are bias,wats the point of being fully active , if a socket is causing u pain and u cant be active, or u cant live ur normal life,using a socket.At least osseointegration gives back ur life to do things instantly like walking and do things instantly wen u need to move,not like a socket where it takes up so much time just to put it on.​@livinglifeintentionally3912

great presentation Christoffer......sockets are like shoes.....not to tight or loose ....blisters are a serious issue......thanks :)

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

Thanks DL Brittain

[@bluedeva]

I’m so glad you have profiled the ossur direct cast AK socket, ossur have done a fantastic job creating this AK version. It looks really comfortable especially for sitting. Would be great to see how you get on with it longer term. 🤗

[@gwenivre]

What I often tell people is a socket without a liner is like a Porsche and a socket with a liner is a Lincoln town car with springs. 😀 I came across this looking for the new sockets that are held on with air pumps. Thank you

Dear Sir, You did not recommend as double amputee that your which socket is conformable because I got like your second one with bag you pulled up. mine is like this with liner but still pinch me?

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

Hi, maybe your socket needs some adjustments to fit perfectly?

[@Halfstep2024]

For anyone reading this that’s curious I too have the ossur direct fit socket and it’s amazing. I’ve tried basically all the ones he has as well and none come close.

[@alexward8596]

did you have problems with your other sockets where you'd get super uncomfortable pressure points on your limb? i need a new option

[@Halfstep2024]

@@alexward8596 I had every problem you can think of, pressure points, blisters, skin breakdown everything when I had traditionally made sockets. I’ve had my direct fit for two years and work full time in construction and literally the day I got it all those problems disappeared.

[@alexward8596]

@@Halfstep2024 goddamn say no more! I work on cars for a living with my above knee situation and i have these nice sockets made that uses electronic vacuum pumps but it's just so fucking uncomfortable after about 5 or so hours. God bless your response time, take care.

[@MusicInMotion_67]

I go in tomorrow 10.6.22 to have a direct socket made. I'm currently in a subischial with a suction and I hate it. It's uncomfortable, I can only wear it a few hours at a time and it takes forever to get it on because of the liner, making sure I have a suction which I lose often. I have a rare skin disorder that blisters easy and and this makes it worse. Sitting in it is difficult at best. I lose suction every time I sit and to top it off the liner slides down. I'm really hoping the direct socket will make a difference.

[@MusicInMotion_67]

Is a liner and ring required with this?

Is the direct socket more comfortable all around than the subischial socket? I go to get a direct socket tomorrow 10.6.22. OI is what I'd like to get. I'm a LAKA.

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

Hi Karen! Has your socket work out well? I think the direct socket is more comfortable especially when sitting down. And I have good support when walking. But I needed some different socket trials before I got it to work :)

[@MusicInMotion_67]

@@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee not at all. It's comfortable when I first put it on but it's so high on the groin even after cutting it down and it's not even touching the groin anymore (I have a rare skin disorder that's contributing to this discomfort). Sitting is extremely uncomfortable and I lose suction every time and my back and hip hurt when I go to get up. I lose suction often and the liner slides (again I think the texture of my skin contributes to this as well. As a life long BK this wasn't a problem but being an AKA is a huge problem). Blistering is a big problem. Again the skin does this easy anyway so the socket makes it worse. I went in to get a direct socket made and at the time it was being made it felt like the liner had slid down some during the process but since it was my first experience I wasn't sure on what I should feel so when they tried it on me after it was made, I couldn't get down in it all the way. I came back a week later in case it was from swelling and still couldn't get down in it. Sitting was way more comfortable but the stability wasn't there and I wouldn't trust it to not lose suction. I suspect this is largely due to not being down in it all the way. I would put my thumb in the side and completely loose suction. It looked like when she made it she made it harder on herself than it had to be. She didn't use a donning tube to get the silicone on so it was much harder for her. I think they are going to attempt another one, but I'm also trying to get OI approved which I think would resolve a lot of these issues.

[@alantjihokuru2854]

Hi Christoffer thanks a lot for the presentation. My question is that is the upper part of the prothesis adjustable or is it possible to get one?

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

Hi Alan! No the upper part (Socket) is not adjustable. It is molded on my leg to fit perfectly but after that it is fixed

[@alantjihokuru2854]

@@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee ok thanks a lot

[@stevesolo16]

I tried the liner, but I found it uncomfortable. It was tight on my sciatic nerve. I also sweat in the silicon liner. I am currently using a suction socket with a soft bottom. I'm a through the knee.

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

That's great and if it's working good stay whit it. It's no need to change a winning concept

[@Dadeets]

Just wondered if you or anyone else commenting has experienced an issue with the rubber sleeve coming away from the direct socket? I’ve had issue with this due to the resin lip area which hold the sleeve in place crumbling away and breaking off in shards . I’ve been told this shouldn’t happen period. But it has and I kinda feel I’m being blamed. Given I’ve done nothing but put it on and take it off - exactly as shown by the Ossur tech, I’m confident in saying it’s down to either materials or manufacture.

[@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee]

Hi! You do nothing wrong. This happens to me as well so now days I need a new socker every year due to that and volume change. But since the process is so quick, I find that okay :)

[@Dadeets]

@@ChristofferLindheTripleAmputee Hi thanks for replying. That’s crazy because they tried to tell me yesterday this was something that Ossur hadn’t seen before and tried to blame me for not using it or donning correctly!! 🤬 I have an even bigger problem now ! I went to have a new socket made yesterday and it has been made at least 2 inches shorter and it is so tight I cant get my stump to go past my valve button. Walking in it is almost impossible as the socket only goes approx half way up my stump as I’m not getting all the way into it. So it feels like it kind of dangling there insecurely. I’m literally at my wits end with it as I go on holiday in a week too. Think it’s time for me to start getting mad. Ha

[@horiah0r0n2]

Nice.. Your socket is profi.. Im in France Paris but the prothesist from here is a joke in comparison with your socket.. My socket is heavy, thick..no way. But is good to see other for future. Tnx bro
