Trimming Instructions
The device may be trimmed to increase range of motion, or for patient
preference (Fig. 2). The Iceross Curvemaster is a recommended tool,
specifically designed to produce a smooth, rounded edge when trimming.
Caution: Do not cut the device below the level of the matrix or below the
proximal trim-lines of the socket. Excessive trimming may reduce the
suction between the device and limb, and compromise suspension.
Socket Fitting
Achieving the intended function of the device is dependent on the fit of
the socket. Appropriate socket design is essential to achieve suspension,
control, and comfort.
The following checklist should be used when checking the socket fit:
• Patient can don the socket easily without the use of lubricant aids.
• Full contact between the liner and the socket inner wall.
• No air pockets develop when the patient loads the prosthesis.
• Minimized pistoning in the socket thus, no visible movement when
pulling on the prosthesis.
• Full movement possible without compromising the suspension.
Caution: If feedback indicates any of the above conditions are not met,
the socket will need to be adjusted or remade accordingly.
Caution: For a cushion liner, the socket must be airtight in order to
maintain vacuum suspension when a sleeve is applied.
Locking Liner
It is recommended that the device is used in conjunction with a
compatible Össur lock.
Iceross Dermo Junior and Iceross Stabilo Junior are only compatible with
the Icelock 700 series lock.
Caution: Do not use a flangeless pin with the device (Fig. 3). A flangeless
pin can push through the distal attachment.
Fixed distal attachment
If a lanyard suspension system is used: Turn the connecting screw into
the distal attachment of the liner. Refer to the instructions for use for the
lanyard suspension system for correct instructions.
If a locking pin is used: Apply Loctite 410/411 or an equivalent compound
to the threads of the pin and tighten the attachment pin to the fixed distal
attachment, torque to 4 Nm. Refer to the instructions for use for the lock
used for correct instructions.
Interchangeable distal attachment (only applicable for Iceross Sport)
Tighten the distal attachment to the liner to 4 Nm. To fasten the
attachment pin to the distal attachment, apply Loctite 410/411 or an
equivalent compound to the threads of the pin and torque to 4 Nm.
USAGE
Donning
Caution: Open wounds or damaged skin should be covered with a
bandage or other appropriate covering to prevent direct contact between
the wound and device.
