Bryan Costello shares his incredible journey from nuclear power plant worker to prosthetic innovator after losing his leg an accident. Drawing on his mechanical expertise, he developed heating and cooling systems for prosthetic sockets that address temperature regulation problems that have plagued amputees for decades.
• Developing heating elements that integrate between carbon fiber laminations in prosthetic sockets
• Creating cooling systems with circulating water that prevent overheating and excessive sweating
• Designing moisture-wicking distal end pads that absorb sweat and protect sensitive residual limb tissue
• Working with Special Forces members who successfully climbed Mount Everest using his heated sockets
• Expanding his technology to orthotics and medical emergency cooling boards for trauma patients
• Pursuing L-codes to make his innovations more accessible through insurance coverage
• Finding success through direct marketing on LinkedIn and social media
