Iceross Distal Cups (I-3000xx) provide enhanced comfort for conical
limbs with poor soft tissue coverage. They can also be used as a fitting
tool in conjunction with the Iceross Original liners to ensure total con-
tact between the silicone and residual limb. The DERMOGEL silicone in
the Iceross Distal Cup conforms to the limb, thus minimizing pressure
over bony prominence during gait.
To correctly fit a Distal Cup:
1. Measure the circumference of the residual limb at 4cm from the
distal end. (Figure A)
2. Choose the Distal Cup two or three sizes smaller than the
measurement
3. Roll the Distal Cup directly over the limb. (Figure I)
4. When using an Iceross liner in combination with a Distal Cup, the
liner measurement (4cm from the distal end) should be made
withthe Distal Cup in place (i.e. OVER the Distal Cup). (Figure J)
5. Choose the correct Iceross liner size based on the measurement
obtained with the Distal Cup in place.

Iceross Pads (I-6103xx) can be used to fill in any problem areas (i.e.
voids or scars) to ensure better fit and to minimize trapped air. Iceross
Pads may also be used to distribute body pressure and to protect the
skin. In some cases, custom-formed pads may be required for irregular
shapes or problem areas. See Ossur Prosthetic Product Catalogue for
more information.
L. LINER CARE: (Figure L)
Proper product care is important. The liner needs to be washed inside
and out every day, following use. Your patient should be instructed to
remove the liner, turn the liner inside out and wash it with Iceross Clean
& Simple soap (See Section M). The liner can also be machine washed
(40°C/Hot) with a mild detergent. Fabric softeners or bleaches or other
products or cleaning solutions may damage the liner and should NOT
be used. After cleaning, the patient should rinse the liner thoroughly
with water and wipe both sides dry with a lint-free cloth.
An Iceross liner can be used directly after washing. It does not need to
dry over night. Always return the liner to its normal position with the dis-
tal attachment facing out as soon as possible after cleaning. The Seals
must be clean and free from dirt prior to use.
Iceross liners should always be checked for damage or wear. Any dam-
age may weaken the effectiveness of the liner and should be reported to
the user's prosthetist immediately. Misuse may result in potential loss
of suspension.
