CUSTOM SILICONE LINERS FOR UPPER EXTREMITY PROSTHETICS

Whatmough, Ian (Myoelectric Symposium, 2002)

This paper is intended to illustrate some new fitting techniques for the upper extremity amputee using two types of custom silicone liners manufactured at the Bloorview MacMillan Children’s Centre in Toronto. The need ...
Electrically Conductive Silicone Interface For Myoelectric Prostheses With Silicone Socket Suspension

Whatmough, Ian; Glasford, Shane; Liang, Tony; Andresek, Jan (Myoelectric Symposium, 2011)

Silicone socket suspension technology for the upper extremity amputee has been proven to provide increased suspension and range of motion over conventional self suspending sockets. Application of silicone socket suspension ...
AN ELECTROMECHANICAL QUICK-CONNECT MECHANISM FOR MYOELECTRIC PROSTHESES USING SILICONE SLEEVES

Wells, David; Al-Temen, Ihsan; Glasford, Shane; Heim, Winfried; Whatmough, Ian; Johnson, Bill; Chau, Gilbert (Myoelectric Symposium, 2005)

A unique children’s upper-limb prosthesis prototype with an improved suspension and electronic interconnect has been developed. Silicone liners provide effective suspension for prostheses. However, they have been problematic ...
