At Pros-Tech, our staff is comprised of technicians dedicated to their individual areas of expertise. We offer an advanced and personalized approach to upper-extremity and lower-extremity prosthetics. We are committed to helping every patient reach his or her individual goals. We can fit and fabricate prostheses for patients of all ages and desired activity levels.
We custom-fabricate prostheses using the combination of components and materials that are the most appropriate to the needs of each individual patient. We always strive to devise a prosthesis that is light- weight, yet structurally supportive.
Whenever possible, we utilize advanced materials for optimum performance -such as silicone, titanium, aluminum, stainless steel or carbon composite. We can also create more cost-effective prosthetics using time-tested materials and components when required.
Lower-Extremity Prosthetics
Pros-Tech can custom-fabricate prosthetic devices for trans-tibial (below-knee), trans-femoral (above-knee) or hip disarticulations. Our highly-trained staff will consult with the patient after surgery, create a training leg to help the patient adjust to the prosthesis, and then fabricate a finished prosthesis for permanent use.
Fittings and adjustments are a crucial factor in achieving optimum performance from prostheses. We are committed to providing patients with comfort, assistance with rehabilitation, along with consultations and adjustments throughout the life of the prosthesis.
Upper-Extremity Prosthetics
Pros-Tech is one of the few companies that have on-staff experts in this field. Upper-extremity prosthetics include fingers, trans-radial (below- elbow), trans-humeral (above-elbow) and shoulder disarticulations.
We will custom-fabricate an upper-extremity prosthesis, including passive, mechanical, or electronic limbs-or even combine a variety of systems. We can also create interchangeable fittings-such as a cosmetic hand for social activities, in addition to a terminal device or custom- made device for work or sports. As with lower-extremity prosthetics, we will provide consultations and adjustments whenever they, are needed. |
