Inspect the socket, panels, inner socket, trimlines, suspension, and component setup before fitting. Confirm that the device matches the submitted case details, side, alignment notes, and design request.

During the first fitting, assess overall comfort, limb contact, pressure areas, suspension, stability, and ease of donning and doffing. Ask the patient to share any discomfort, pinching, movement, or unusual pressure.

After short wear periods, check the residual limb for redness, irritation, pressure marks, or sensitive areas. Redness that does not fade after removing the device may require adjustment or further evaluation.

Observe standing, weight bearing, gait, balance, and movement as appropriate. Make sure the device supports the patient’s mobility goals while maintaining comfort, control, and stability.

Adjustments should be made carefully and based on clinical findings, patient feedback, and fit goals. For adjustable designs, guide the patient on proper use and safe adjustment ranges.

Record fit notes, pressure areas, alignment observations, patient comments, and any changes made during the fitting. Photos and clear notes can help Quorum review the case if additional support is needed.

Fit can change as the patient heals, builds strength, or increases activity. Follow-up appointments help monitor comfort, skin response, suspension, alignment, and overall device performance.

If additional guidance, design review, or fabrication support is needed, contact Quorum with fit notes, photos, and patient feedback so our team can help determine next steps.
