Vessl Prosthetics

Every year, 180 000 people in the United States have their leg amputated below the knee. Currently, that is 1.4 million people. In 90% of cases, the cause is diabetes or vascular disease, which predominantly occurs in seniors. Unfortunately, amputees experience changes in their residual legs volume, such that a change of just 1-2% causes pain. This pain is just the start: half of all lower limb amputees develop pressure sores and the five-year mortality rate for a person with a below knee amputation is as high as 82%. As daunting as this may seem, Vessl has a unique solution. We have developed an automatically adjusting prosthetic socket that redistributes pressure around the leg in response to a change in limb size. Join us in helping amputees get reliably back on their feet.
