Apocrine Prosthetic Liner Coating
F
inally, a deep-cleaning coating that is effective against odor and decontaminates for the 1.8 million U.S. lower-leg amputees. Apocrine™ is a patented and proprietary solution that is remarkably effective for decontaminating, deodorizing, and cleaning liners commonly used with prostheses. Apocrine is delivered with a unique sponge-tip applicator that is designed to ensure rapid and complete coverage of the liner. The combination of the deep-cleaning action/effect of silver and the physical scrubbing that occurs with the sponge tip promotes a clean, debris-free, and odor-free liner. Order directly or through Cascade.

NEXO by Fillauer
Fillauer's NEXO™ line provides simple, innovative alternatives for patients with transradial and transhumeral limb loss. NEXO's PEEK rods are lightweight and strong. Because of their flexibility, they reduce rotational and perpendicular vibration and provide force damping to the residual limb. The rods may be trimmed to length and bent for alignment changes. NEXO provides two wrist options: the USMC-style quick disconnect wrist, previously only available for use in an exoskeletal system, and a lightweight friction wrist. All NEXO systems are easy to build and up to 50% lighter than existing prostheses.
