ALPS VACUUM INTEGRATED PUMP

Brand: ALPS

The ALPS VIP® is an air expulsion integrated pump for elevated vacuum. Its use provides patients with continuous total contact when donning the prosthesis. This is essential for even weight distribution and to distribute the suspension of the prosthesis over the whole surface of the residual limb. The elevated vacuum created by the VIP® stabilizes the residual limb, overcoming all issues connected with the residual limb changing volume during the day.
