Spray the prosthetic glove with a special cleaner available from your prosthetist. Because there are different cleaning agents, please be sure to follow the specific instructions of your technician.
Rub the glove thoroughly with a dry, lint-free cloth. This will remove any dirt on the surface of the prosthetic glove.
Now it is the turn of the outer shaft. Clean it with a slightly damp cloth. Use a little water with pH-neutral soap. Then wash off the soap with clean water.
After you have removed your prosthesis, you should also clean the inner socket thoroughly with water and pH-neutral soap. Then wipe the inner socket with clean water to remove the soap residue.
When you have finished, it is essential that your prosthesis dries completely. Place it in a dry place and do not use any additional heat source (such as a hair dryer or heater).
To clean your silicone liner, first turn it inside out and let sufficient water flow over the surface of the liner.
Now rub the silicone liner with pH-neutral soap. After you have rinsed off the soap with water, you can dry your liner with a towel.
Finally, you should spray the silicone liner with disinfectant. After rinsing the disinfectant with clean water, you should leave the liner in a dry place and put it on only when it is completely dry.
