STEP 1: Find your size

Measure the circumference 2.5 inches (6cm) up from the bottom of your limb in centimeters and select the closest size. For example, if your residual limb measures 24 cm, please select size "24". **Sizes are in centimeters.

Never choose a liner size that exceeds your measurement. Example: If the residual limb measures 24.5 cm at the indicated location, choose WillowWood size 24 not size 26. Selecting the correct size is very important.

If you're in-between sizes, we suggest remeasuring again to be on safe side. If the size you arrived at after measuring seems too big or small, in some cases it helps to use the size of your current liner as a very rough guide. Your existing liner may have the size printed on the front. Continue to STEP 2: Length

When measuring your thigh, pay special attention to how tight you take your measurement. It's best to pull the ends of your tape measure somewhat tight and then release. Your goal is to find a middle ground of how much tension you should apply to your measuring tape. Too tight and too loose will both result in a poorly fitting prosthetic liner.

Suggested Use

This innovative liner combines the trusted Alpha Classic gel with flexible, non-restrictive materials to minimize pressure on your residual limb. The addition of one-way stretch Select fabric in the bottom area reduces pistoning, delivering a secure and snug fit without feeling restrictive. With retrofittable compatibility for common 6mm liner profiles, the Alpha Basic Liner is a versatile and practical addition to any prosthetic setup.

How-to Apply

Prior to applying your Alpha Basic Liner make sure your residual limb is clean, dry, and free of any soap residue. Cover any open wounds and non-intact skin with a product similar to Spenco. WillowWood states to avoid using any type of animal based lotions or powders on your residual limb or liner. These products may damage your WillowWood Liner.

Invert your WillowWood liner so that the logo is on the inside. Place the end of your liner against the end of your limb. If using a pin lock liner, center the pin attachment on the bottom of your limb. Pay special attention when using the AK version to have the logo positioned along the outside. Carefully roll your liner onto your limb.

***Warning: Do not pull your liner onto your limb. Pulling the liner may stretch the skin and result in an uncomfortable fit and possible skin issues along the edge of your liner. Last, make sure that there are no wrinkles or air pockets between the liner and your limb. Air pockets cause excessive sweating.

Directions for Use

Prior to applying your Alpha Basic Liner make sure your residual limb is clean, dry, and free of any soap residue. Cover any open wounds and non-intact skin with a product similar to Spenco.

Care Instructions

Proper hygiene is critical when wearing any prosthetic liner. Your Alpha Basic Liner must be thoroughly cleaned each day and disinfected once a week. Clean the gel side of your Basic liner using lukewarm water and a pH balanced prosthetic cleanser. Apply your prosthetic cleanser with a clean, soft cloth or sponge.

**Warning: Do not scrub your liner on either the fabric or gel sides.

Rinse your Alpha Basic Gel Liner with water and dry it with a clean and lint-free cloth. Place your Basic Liner on a drying stand with the logo on the outside.

Once a week spray the gel side of your liner with ethyl alcohol spray and wipe clean with a lint-free soft cloth. Last, rinse any alcohol from your liner with water and dry again using the above instructions.

Precautions

Do not place your WillowWood Alpha Basic Liner on an open wound. If irritation, discomfort or poor circulation occurs, discontinue use and notify your physician or Prosthetist immediately. Do not wear an Alpha Basic for more than 20 hours daily.

This Alpha Basic Liner is not indicated for any amputee who has a skin condition which can be aggravated when covered by a non-porous gel material. The Alpha AK Liner should not be used by any prosthesis user whose residual limb is shorter than 3 inches, unless a secondary AK Belt is used.
