Carevale has recently adopted Direct Socket Design technology, an advanced and innovative approach in prosthetic socket fabrication that significantly reduces waiting time while enhancing precision and comfort. With this technology, the prosthetic socket is created directly on the amputee’s residual limb, ensuring an accurate, customized fit that closely matches the individual’s anatomy.
The entire socket fabrication process is completed within approximately 15 minutes, eliminating the need for traditional multi-step casting and prolonged trial sessions. This direct fabrication method improves stump-to-socket clearance, enhances weight distribution, and provides better suspension and comfort for the user. As a result, the prosthesis offers improved stability, confidence, and functional performance.
Remarkably, after just 15 minutes, the user can begin walking with the prosthesis, making this technology a major advancement in delivering faster, more efficient, and patient-centered prosthetic care at Carevale.
