Overlay TT

The Overlay TT from Ethnocare is a breathable fabric sleeve with an integrated air expansion system that the wearer can adjust for maximum, personalized comfort. The air expansion system is a replacement for prosthetic socks, enabling more effective residual limb volume management. Allowing a user to quickly modify the pressure within their socket allows them to tailor the fit to their activity or situation. Not only does it improve comfort of a socket, but it also extends the life of that socket; by accommodating up to 15 ply, less socket modifications and replacements are required.

Features and benefits

• Personalised fit – user adjustable air bladders over area of most common volume loss / higher pressure tolerance.
• Increases volume in socket from 2 to 15 ply.
• Can be used with locking and cushion liners.
• Compatible with sleeves, passive vacuum and active vacuum systems.
• Quickly increase or decrease pressure as required.
• Can be adjusted through clothing.

Measuring Guide

Cushion / Locking liners

Circumference measurement is taken with the liner on, 4cm up from distal end. Length measurement is taken from popliteal fossa to distal end, with liner on and knee bent to 90˚

   

Sealing liners

Circumference (C) measurement is taken at the proximal edge of the seal. Length measurement (L) is taken from the proximal edge of the seal to the posterior trimline of socket. If socket not yet fabricated, measure length from proximal edge of the seal to the popliteal fossa.
