Description

Covering both upper and lower extremity prosthetics, this book provides the information clinicians need to manage a range of prosthetic patients, and their disorders. The authors cover practical solutions to everyday problems that clinicians encounter, from early prosthetic management to issues facing the more advanced prosthetic user. The text is broken down into four sections encompassing the range of subjects that confront practitioners, including Early Management; Rehabilitation of Patients with Lower Limb Amputation; Rehabilitation of Patients with Upper Limb Amputations; and Beyond the Basics, which includes special considerations for children and futuristic concepts.
