Randall Alley Hosts HiFi Overview Webinar 6/3

By Lower Extremity, Prosthetics, Upper Extremity

Randall Alley, HiFi Interface Inventor, is asking prosthetists to look to science not art when creating interface designs. It is well documented that current socket designs are plagued by inherent issues causing instability, rotational issues, pistoning, falls, skin issues, excessive energy expenditure, and the inability for wearers to sit up straight. Randall will be highlighting the research and benefits of his HiFi Interface System technology, including improved comfort, function, stability, faster walking speeds, improved gait symmetry and more. No more “buckets.” Time to step up to a better design. Time to step up for better science. Time to step up for our patients.

Captain DuVal – First Amputee to Attend Special Forces Qualification Course

By Biodesigns, HiFi, Military, Myoelectric, Prosthetics, Socket Technology, Upper Extremity

Captain Carey DuVal is an amazing example of someone who doesn’t let his amputation prevent him from achieving his goals. Captain DuVal is a transradial  (below elbow) amputee as result of a VBIED attack during combat deployment to Afghanistan in 2014. Captain DuVal has utilized biodesigns’ HiFi upper limb prosthetic socket since 2015 as Active Duty Combat Arms Officer.

Captain DuVal is the first amputee of any kind to be selected at the U.S. Army Special Forces Assessment and Selection while utilizing a prosthesis. He is also the first amputee to attend the Special Forces Qualification Course. At the Q-Course, DuVal had to complete all the physical challenges of his fellow soldiers proving with the proper “equipment” (interface system), he could pass all the physical requirements.  Captain DuVal credits the HiFi for allowing him to compete at his highest level. Congrats to Captain DuVal. You are a true hero.
