The FCGZ is used in prosthetic and orthotic clinics, limb-fitting centres and upper-limb rehabilitation services that finish passive prostheses for appearance and comfort. Its users are people with amputation at or below the elbow, or a congenital absence of the hand, who want a cosmetic hand that looks natural and feels soft to the touch.
The design suits a particular brief, and the workflow follows from it. The clinician records the wearer's dimensions and chooses the long or short version, and Wonderful makes the glove to that record. At the fitting, the zip is opened so the filled glove can be drawn over the prosthesis, then closed so the hand sits snugly. The filling means the hand keeps a plump, natural shape from the moment it is on.
Comfort and appearance carry equal weight for the wearers who choose it. A hand that feels soft matters at a handshake, when a child takes it, or when it rests against the wearer's own body through the day. A hand that keeps its shape matters in every glance. The FCGZ addresses both, and the zip keeps the fitting practical despite the glove's close fit and filled body.
Typical uses include finishing a new passive prosthesis, providing a cosmetic hand for wearers who are sensitive to how a hand feels as well as how it looks, and replacing a worn glove to the same record. The long version suits wearers who want the forearm covered too, while the short version keeps attention on the hand. Prosthetists and prosthetic technicians handle the order and the fitting throughout.
