A prosthesis liner provided for fitting over a stump of a limb. The prosthesis liner includes a main body having an inner face directed towards the skin of the stump, and an outer face directed away from the stump. The prosthesis liner also includes a proximal access opening and a side wall, which extends from the access opening as far as a closed distal end portion of the liner. At least one sealing lip is arranged on the outer face of the main body and protrudes radially outwards from the main body.

Methods and devices of tissue attachment with one or more tissue layers being attached using an adhesive to bone or other tissue layers including moving skin and surrounding tissues of the face or any other body part in relationship to the bone or cartilage structures below thus effecting a “skin tightening” or lifting procedure. Methods and devices for minimally invasively locating a precise tissue layer, repositioning the tissue layer in relation to the surrounding tissue layers, creating a specific potential space, delivering an adhesive material within the tissue and depositing an amount of adhesive/sealant material to allow for tissue adhesion.

A nipple cover comprising: an adhesive portion and a non-adhesive portion. The non-adhesive portion is placed near the center of the adhesive nipple cover, in order to create a combined nipple cover with a non-adhesive zone near the center of the adhesive face of the nipple cover. The resulting nipple cover may be placed directly onto a wearer's body to comfortably provide protection and reduced nipple visibility to outside observers.

The present invention relates to absorbent articles for solving the problem of stopping the excessive accumulations of sweat from building up inside a prosthetic liner. The four layers of materials include: a first layer of a cellulose pulp material having a thickness use for a desired absorbency, a second layer of a wicking cloth material having a thickness use for a desired absorbency, a third layer of a non-toxic double side adhesive tape material one side will stick to both layer, and a fourth layer that is the opposite side which are cover with paper material that can be peeled from the third layer to adhere the inside of a prosthetic liner base sheet to stop the excessive accumulation build-up of sweating.

A stem for fixating a prosthesis to a bone can include a first stem portion and a second stem portion. The first stem portion can extend substantially along a longitudinal axis. The first stem portion can include a distal portion. The second stem portion can extend substantially distally from the distal portion of the first stem portion along the longitudinal axis. The second stem portion can be securable to the bone independent of the first stem portion, and the second stem portion can include a distal portion couplable to a compress assembly.

A stem for fixating a prosthesis to a bone can include a first stem portion and a second stem portion. The first stern portion can extend substantially along a longitudinal axis. The first stem portion can include a distal portion. The second stem portion can extend substantially distally from the distal portion of the first stem portion along the longitudinal axis. The second stem portion can be securable to the bone, and the second stem portion can include a distal portion couplable to a compress assembly.

An ankle-foot orthosis which is capable of being worn by a user in an acquatic environment which is lightweight, water-resistant, and reduces the amount of hydrodynamic drag during motion of a leg of a user when in water. The ankle-foot orthosis can be fully customizable to the needs of the user. The ankle-foot orthosis including three protective components; a shank shell, a shin plate, and a foot shell. The ankle-foot orthosis optionally including an additional protective component; a dorsal foot plate. At least one flow passage within each of the shank shell and the foot shell. The at least one flow passage providing water drainage and air ventilation, and reducing the overall weight of the shank shell and foot shell.

Examples of an implantable conduit that is tubular in shape and has an inner lumen and an outer surface, the implantable conduit are disclosed. The implantable conduit includes a plurality of overlap elements including a first overlap element and a second overlap element positioned adjacent the first overlap element to define an adjacent pair of the plurality of overlap elements. The first overlap element overlaps onto the second overlap element to define an overlapping portion between an inward facing surface of the first overlap element and an outward facing surface of the second overlap element. The implantable conduit also includes a plurality of attachment features coupling the first overlap element to the second overlap element. The inward facing surface of the first overlap element and the outward facing surface of the second overlap element are separable at the overlapping portion by an external force to open an aperture in the overlapping portion between at least two of the plurality of attachment features such that the aperture defines a path between the inner lumen and outer surface of the implantable conduit. The path is sealed absent the external force.

Anchoring system including a fastener and a clasp. The fastener includes a substantially planar base, a first clasp-engaging member protruding from a portion of the base and having an outwardly-extending flange, the fastener further including an adhesive suitable to secure the base directly to the skin of a wearer. The clasp includes a first end configured to engage and rotate about the first clasp-engaging member and a second end configured to engage a cable of a prosthetic or orthotic device, the adhesive having a sufficient strength to support manual operation of the prosthetic or orthotic device.
