The Elevated Vacuum Locking System (EVLS®) is Prosthetic Design’s modular push shuttle lock that is conducive for use in elevated vacuum socket systems. When properly fit into the distal void in the socket, the lock acts as a suspension mechanism, connecting the plate and sealing plate that has been designed to hold vacuum levels up to 27 inHg. The EVLS allows for the fabrication of a single-wall thermoplastic socket or a conventional laminated socket. Using ER resin, available from PRS, can eliminate the need for a Vivak®/PETG liner.
