Design, construction, and evaluation of the BeneFit socket: An adjustable temporary socket for a transradial prosthesis
The proposed design is able to change its diameter and length. Moreover, according to the conducted survey, it is perceived as satisfactory with respect to both user needs and expectations of the experts. "Weight," "ease in donning and doffing," and "breathability" were rated particularly well, whereas an improved, more versatile, and smaller design is needed for broad clinical use.
