Instructions for use of prostheses and service guide Amputees often wear prostheses . In order to ensure the normal use of prostheses, perform their functions well, and prolong their service life, the following items should be noted. 1. Formally accept the maintenance of the cavity: (including the sleeve silicone soft sleeve) 1. The upper limb arm tube and lower limb receiving cavity should be kept clean every day, cleaned before going to bed, and allowed to dry naturally. 2. After wearing the upper limb arm tube and lower limb receiving cavity for a period of time, the residual limb atrophy may sometimes occur. At this time, the residual limb socks can be worn or the leather pad can be adjusted to keep wearing and walking safe. If it is still too loose, please contact the company in time to avoid falling after slipping, and replace the receiving cavity if necessary. 3.

Temporary receiving cavity and temporary prosthesis. 1. Temporary receiving cavity and temporary prosthesis are used for observation, shaping, and stabilization of residual limbs for amputees who are newly fitted with prostheses. 2. Temporary prostheses are only used for weight-bearing, support, joint mobility and training strength and sense of walking of the residual limb. 3. Maintenance of structural parts 1. The structural parts of the prosthesis can be used normally according to the after-sales warranty period. In general, we will go to the prosthesis company for maintenance and maintenance regularly for 3 to 6 months. If there is an abnormality, contact the prosthetic company to resolve it properly. 2.

When changing shoes, the heel height should not exceed plus or minus 7.5px-12.5px when the prosthesis was first installed. Or contact a prosthetic company. 2. In order to make the prosthesis comfortable to wear, each wearer should pay attention to keeping the weight plus or minus no more than 3 kg. 3. Patients with pathological amputation or special skin (such as skin grafts, adhesive skin, etc.) should follow the instructions of the technician when wearing prostheses. 4. Pay attention to the changes of the skin during the change of seasons. Skin wrinkles and dryness are prone to occur, and care should be taken to moisturize and protect the skin. 7. Precautions for myoelectric hand skin, precautions for the use of batteries and how to use the charger 1. Be careful not to touch sharp objects and ink on the hand skin of myoelectric hand to avoid damage and dirt (all dirt can't be washed off). 2. The battery must be charged with a dedicated battery charger. Keep away from heat sources during storage and keep in a low temperature, dry environment. 3. Don't throw the battery into fire or water. Do not disassemble or modify the packaged battery by yourself. 4. For long-term storage, 50% discharge state must be maintained. 5. Connect the DC output circular plug of the charger to the socket of the charging base, and insert the power plug of the charger into an AC 220v power socket.
