Bikini of Hip Sockets Gait Lab Test - Narrated

The ‘Bikini of Hip Sockets’ is the latest technological advancement for hip disarticulation and hemipelvectomy amputees. It radically changes life for individuals with these high and challenging levels of amputation by providing a more direct biomechanical link between the body movement and the prosthesis, resulting in superior control and functional outcomes. The compliant Iliac Crest Stabilizers dissipate mechanical forces through a compliant matrix versus conventional semi-rigid “bucket” style sockets. At less than half the weight and less than 1/3 of the surface area of conventional hip level interfaces, the Bikini of Hip Sockets interface offers superior comfort.
