Paediatric Prosthetics

Prosthetics for children are very different than prosthetics for adults. Although the technology and the principle remain the same, children handle their prosthetics in their own way. Also, when it comes to children, the parents and the prosthetists are much more involved in the entire process of fitting the child with a prosthetic limb. Here at Purple Prosthetics, we aim to make children feel as comfortable as possible and get them fitted with a prosthesis that enables them to be a child and let nothing get in their way.

FAQs

 

A prosthesis is a custom-made device to replace an amputated limb or body part. The primary purpose of a prosthesis is to restore function but it can also restore cosmetic appearance.

Various contributing factors, such as the material of prosthetic device, weight loss or gain, functionality, etc., require you to change your prosthesis over time. For prosthetic sockets, a useful life period of 2 or more years is expected. Prosthetic components such as feet and adaptors usually have a manufacturer warranty of 2-3 years which then require replacement for safety reasons. Some prosthetic knees and hands have warranties of up to 6 years.

While personal preference and activity will vary, you can wear a prosthesis all day. Throughout the rehabilitation phase you may start with shorter periods and work up to longer periods. After rehabilitation you can wear a prosthesis for as long as you are comfortable doing your daily activities.

There are no fixed price for prosthetics, the cost of a prosthetic device can vary depending on level amputation, technology and componentry being used.
