  • ALPS cosmetic covers are pre-stretched and are heated to shrink to size. After pulling skin over prosthesis, use a heat gun to start at the toes and work up to the proximal trim. If needed, a vinyl contact cement can be used or super glue for a permanent bond. Can be used on transtibial amputees. For use with suction suspension applications, place a small hole so the cosmetic cover does not inflate.
  • The PadSil was developed to increase patient comfort in combination with ALPS liners. By increasing distal pressure and enhancing vascular function in distal tissues, the more active amputees will appreciate the additional cushioning, softness, and durability. Users who experience volume changes will also appreciate the PadSils ability to lift the limb back into the proper position.
  • The ALPS Skin Reliever eliminates shear forces, frictions, and prevents abrasions on the skin of the stump. It also accommodates volume fluctuations over the life of the prosthesis. There is no need to make a new socket, ALPS Skin Reliever can be worn under silicone, gel, and pelite liners.
  • The ALPS prosthetic sock is lightweight and soft, providing cushioning and comfort for a superior fit. Available in 1, 3, and 5 ply, the socks are manufactured with Coolmax® fibers to create a moisture management system which moves perspiration away from the body and through the fabric, where it can evaporate quickly. They accommodate volume fluctuation and can be worn alone or with ones prosthesis.
  • VIP is an air expulsion integrated pump for elevated vacuum for prosthetic socket. The use of VIP provides patients continuous total contact when donning the prosthesis. This is essential for an even weight distribution and to distribute the suspension of the prosthesis over the whole surface of the residual limb. Elevated vacuum created by the VIP stabilizes the residual limb, overcoming all issues connected with the stump changing volume during the day.
