2. Background
After amputations, the stump needs to be tightly wrapped to prevent edema and to shape the stump to receive a prosthetic.
The pressure must be adequate throughout the device, tighter at the bottom, looser at the top.
It will fit over the stump and be easily removed and replaced.

3. The Stump Cone
The Stump Cone will have an inner lining that can easily change shape as the limb changes shape throughout the day
As the residual limb becomes smaller, the device will be able to fit around it maintaining compression
The outer lining will be a harder plastic to protect the limb against bumps and falls
The Stump Cone is a Class One device

4. SolidWorks Model A SolidWorks model has been made
Redesign the cone to include a strap so that the cone does not fall off
First Design Second Design

5. Goals & Objectives
Add a strap to ensure the Stump Cone stays on the limb
Discuss the prototype with DeLatorre Prosthetics
Decide on which material would work best from what they have in stock
Set up a time to make the prototype
