Improvement of prosthetics technology and inpatient rehabilitation of patients with amputation hip stumps

Abstract

Timely and comprehensive assessment of indications and contraindications for prosthetics of patients with a faulty amputation stump has proven to increase the prosthetics efficiency based on adequate approaches to treatment by selecting the correct timing of prosthetics and taking into account the general condition of the patient. Timely elimination of existing defects in the amputation stump with the help of surgical and complex physiotherapeutic procedures, as well as early prosthetics, enables patients with amputation stumps to quickly adapt to the prosthesis. The proposed Prosthetics Efficiency Evaluation Program (PEEP), developed by the authors, allows assessing the degree of prosthetics efficiency and complex rehabilitation of a patient objectively and reliably.
