We are committed to Ukraine

Together with the EnableMe Foundation, we have launched a moving initiative: the prosthesis sponsorship programme. Our heart beats for helping people in Ukraine who are in urgent need of prosthetic care. With the Explorer or Lynk system, we want to give these people a new perspective. The EnableMe Ukraine Foundation is focussed on helping people with an urgent need for prosthetic care.

What is the scope of the initiative

We signed a partnership agreement between macu4 and EnableMe Ukraine in January 2024. The initiative will start end of March 2024 with the announcement of the commitment via the foundation's communication channels.

How people in Ukraine can register for a prosthetic aid

The EnableMe Ukraine Foundation is responsible for publicising the initiative in Ukraine. It provides an online registration form that interested persons can use.

Why is there a selection process?

The Explorer System and Lynk System may be suitable for different user profiles. Nevertheless, our systems cannot fulfil all individual requirements. For this reason, applications are examined on the basis of individual requirements and a decision is then made as to whether one of our systems can provide the desired benefit.

How the system is personalised and manufactured

The Explorer system is a passive functional forearm prosthesis and is suitable if a person is affected in the forearm area. It is personalised using measurement data from the forearm and the opposite arm. The system is suitable for both children (especially from the age of 4) and adults. The Lynk system is a passive functional orthoprosthesis and is suitable if a person is affected in the wrist area or the grasping function of the hand. The system is suitable for both children and adults.

How we follow up after the product has been delivered

Once an orthoprosthetic aid has been made available, it is important to carry out a post-market follow-up. The aim here is to ensure that users are using the product correctly, that the product is comfortable to wear and that there are no complications.

Who supports this initiative financially?

The initiative is currently supported exclusively by the two partners. macu4 is, however, looking for further supporters. Do you know someone? Then get in touch with us.

How can the macu4 solutions support you and others?

Be inspired by people who use a macu4 solution in their own unique way. Some as a replacement for their forearm or hand, others to support the limited gripping function of their hand.

You will probably see the first impressions of our initiative here from autumn 2024.
