Which brand of prosthesis is good?

German brand Otto Bok's prosthesis is very good. You can buy it in many places.

Prosthesis is an artificial prosthesis specially designed, manufactured and assembled by means and methods of engineering technology to make up for amputees or incomplete limbs, also known as "prosthesis". Its main function is to replace some of the lost limb functions and restore the amputee's self-care and work ability. It is suitable for amputees due to diseases, traffic accidents, industrial accidents and sports injuries.

Classification of artificial limbs. Prosthetics can be classified according to structure, function, assembly time, amputation site, power source and selected materials. But the most commonly used classification method is divided into upper limb prosthesis and lower limb prosthesis according to the amputation site.

Recent development

Internationally, with the progress of society and science and technology, artificial limb technology is developing from low-level simplicity to high-level complexity. In order to improve the practical performance of artificial limbs, people use all available contemporary science and technology to manufacture artificial limbs with better performance, and adopt more advanced technologies and materials to make them have more perfect performance.

Since 1990s, artificial limb technology has been developing in the high-tech direction that is more accurate, more comfortable and more in line with personal requirements.

China's prosthetic technology has also made some achievements in the research and development of new structures, new materials and new technologies. For example, the myoelectric prosthetic hand began in the 1960s, and now a series of practical myoelectric controlled prostheses have been formed. In the 1990s, lower limbs with hydraulic system and lower limbs sports prostheses made of composite materials were developed.

The electrorheological intelligent lower limb prosthesis is studied. Tsinghua University studied the swing phase-controlled intelligent prosthesis and the real-time detection of human motion images using EMG signals to identify road conditions. At present, China has started to produce some titanium alloy connectors and joints, and the quality is close to the international level.

In addition, the development of simple artificial limbs for amputees in remote areas has also been successful. But on the whole, there are few new technology products in China, and there is still a big gap between China and developed countries in terms of specifications, varieties, performance and quality. The most important thing is the lack of long-term national development planning and key high-tech investment.

Artificial limb assembly needs experts with original professional knowledge and ability to apply and develop these products, and a high-level and high-level R&D team should be established. In the popularization and application of high-tech prosthetic products, we should focus on developing "fist products" with good performance and high quality, which can replace imported prostheses, and boldly learn from and introduce foreign new structures, new materials and new technologies.

The research and development of "Three Innovations" in prosthetic industry in China should focus on narrowing the gap between production technology and service quality, and strive to catch up with the international level. Give priority to replacing prosthetic products that are in great demand and generally affordable for the disabled, and develop and produce special high-tech prosthetic products that are widely used, convenient for centralized production and quick-acting.

Complete the development and production of various joints and connectors of skeletal lower limb system, so that its modern prosthetic products can be completely localized; In the development of prosthetic high-tech products, new materials such as titanium alloy, carbon fiber composite, silicone rubber and thermoplastic plate have made breakthroughs, and some products have reached the international pace, which has promoted the upgrading of the industrial structure of the prosthetic industry.
