🌬️ Breeze Foot with Locking Suspension System
🔹 Breeze Foot – Key Features:
Category: Lightweight, multi-axial prosthetic foot

Activity Level: K2 (limited community ambulator)

Design:

Lightweight composite keel

Water-resistant – suitable for use in wet environments

Multi-axial movement allows moderate terrain adaptability

Best For:

Elderly patients

Low to moderate activity users

Individuals who value stability over high energy return

🔹 Locking Suspension System (Pin Lock):
Components: Silicone liner with a distal pin + mechanical lock in the socket

Function:

Provides firm and secure suspension

Audible click when engaged gives reassurance of proper fit

Minimizes pistoning (vertical movement) between limb and socket

Advantages:

Easy to use, especially for elderly or less dexterous users

Enhances confidence and safety while walking

Simple donning/doffing process

Considerations:

Requires sufficient hand strength to guide the pin into the lock

Socket must be well-aligned to avoid discomfort

✅ Combined Benefits
When used together, the Breeze Foot and locking suspension offer:

Reliable suspension

Comfortable gait with stability

Low maintenance and long-term usability

Ideal for older adults like Mr. Mohan who value simplicity, comfort, and reliability

30/04/2025

Patient Name: Mr. Mohan
Age: 69 Years
Initial Prosthesis: Fabricated at a different facility in Bangalore.

Reported Issues:

Difficulty in walking
Poor socket fit causing discomfort and instability
Inappropriate foot selection that did not match patient's activity level and mobility needs

⚙️ Intervention by KSHEMAA Prosthetics
Upon evaluation, our clinical team identified that the previous prosthesis lacked:
Proper socket alignment and fit
Adequate suspension
Appropriate dynamic response from the prosthetic foot

KSHEMAA's Solution:
Socket: Introduced a custom-designed passive vacuum socket for improved suspension, comfort, and reduced skin issues.

Foot: Upgraded to Pro-Flex XC foot, suitable for Mr. Mohan’s activity level, offering greater energy return, smoother rollover, and stability on uneven surfaces.

✅ Outcome
Mr. Mohan is now walking comfortably, with improved gait symmetry and confidence.
Reports enhanced comfort, reduced fatigue, and no skin breakdown.
Follow-ups confirm proper fit, suspension, and satisfaction with the prosthesis.

It’s great to hear that a 69-year-old is walking comfortably with a Pro-Flex XC foot combined with a passive vacuum socket. This setup offers several advantages that make it well-suited for active older adults:

✅ Benefits of Pro-Flex XC with Passive Vacuum:
Energy Return: The Pro-Flex XC provides excellent energy return and stability, ideal for those who are mobile and want to maintain an active lifestyle even in older age.
Comfort & Suspension: The passive vacuum socket enhances limb-socket suspension, reduces pistoning, and improves proprioception, which increases walking confidence.
Improved Skin Health: Vacuum systems reduce moisture and shear forces, helping prevent skin breakdown — a key benefit in older users.
Enhanced Gait Symmetry: Especially important to reduce strain on the sound limb and overall musculoskeletal system.

🧑‍⚕️ Clinical Considerations:
At 69, continued mobility with this setup suggests good muscle control, balance, and prosthetic training.
Regular follow-up is important to monitor skin condition, socket fit, and energy levels.
Ensure the vacuum system is maintained properly to avoid leaks or loss of suspension.

"OHP3 with Breeze" from Kshemaa Prosthetics likely refers to a modular lower-limb prosthesis configuration, where:

OHP3 is the modular knee joint – possibly a polycentric, mechanical knee joint designed for transfemoral amputees (above-knee).
