| Question | Answer |
| What must you consider with shoulder disarticulation? | Heavily educating the use of prosthetic during intervention due to loss of entire UE. |
| What must you consider with transhumeral amputation? | Fracture, dislocation, or peripheral nerve injury may delay prosthetic intervention. |
| What must you consider with elbow disarticulation? | They might have a suspending socket. Heavy education on the prosthetic. |
| What must you consider with transradial amputation? | Fracture, dislocation, or peripheral nerve damage may delay prosthetic intervention. Functionally better than amputations below this point. |
| What must you consider with wrist disarticulation? | Difficult with cosmetic and function with prosthetic. |
| What must you consider with partial hand amputation? | During prosthetic training if it fails using toes to replace thumb could be an option. |
| What must you consider with hemipelvectomy? | Does not allow activation of prosthetic through a residual limb. Initial motion is activated through WB. |
| What must you consider with transfemoral amputation? | No ability to WB through residual limb. Reeducate on balance and WB through prosthetic. Watch out for hip flexion contractures. |
| What must you consider with knee disarticulation? | Able to WB through residual limb. Watch out for gait deviations and hip flexion contractures. |
| What must you consider with Transtibial amputation? | Inability to WB through residual limb. But patellar tendon should be area of WB status. Reeducate on balance. Watch out for knee flexion contractures. |
| What must you consider with syme's amputation? | Able to WB through residual limb. Reeducate on WB through prosthetic and toe off phase during gait. |
| What must you consider with transmetatarsal and chopart's amputation? | Reeducate on balance, WB, and proprioception. |
| With wrapping what are the general stuff you must consider? | No wrinkles. Diagonal pattern use. Pressure distally. Secure with tape. Change as many times as needed. |
| What must you consider when wrapping with transtibial amputation? | Promote full elbow extension 1st and anchor above the knee |
| What must you consider when wrapping with transfemoral amputation? | Promote full hip extension 1st and anchor around the pelvis |
| What must you consider when wrapping with transradial amputation? | Promote full elbow extension 1st |
