The prosthetic liners are essential and a significant component of socket fitting and usageFrom clinical relevance perspective, the prosthetic liners may be categorized based on their elasticity, conductivity and coefficient of friction (CoF) propertiesPerceived thermal discomfort within the liner during use of prosthetics is a commonly reported outcome by the users. There is a focus on development of new prosthetic technology to address thermal discomfort with the use of linersDespite an effective moisture reduction in the skin-liner interface, the current study did not find any differences in the CLASS score as rated by the subjects, which may be because of inadequately powered study to determine if moisture mitigating liners are effective in providing better suspension, comfort, stability. A properly powered study with objective measures of socket comfort in future is warranted to determine if effective moisture mitigation at the interface can provide a better fit during activity to the amputee.
