Silicone bladder knee disarticulation technique

Schafer, Kristin

Hi Everyone!
Does anyone have any printed material they could email me for the
fabrication of a silicone bladder knee disarticulation socket? It’s been
years since we’ve made one and the techs think they remember how to do
it, but we’d like a quick refresher before we dive in.

Also, we’d like to do a silicone gel pad (out of the Otto Bock 617H44).
Any issues laminating over this gel, in terms of deformation under
vacuum?

Any and all info is appreciated.

Thank you!
Kristin
