Prosthetic considerations during interventions
Flashcards do conjunto (16)
- 1What must you consider with shoulder disarticulation?Heavily educating the use of prosthetic during intervention due to loss of entire UE.
- 2What must you consider with transhumeral amputation?Fracture, dislocation, or peripheral nerve injury may delay prosthetic intervention.
- 3What must you consider with elbow disarticulation?They might have a suspending socket. Heavy education on the prosthetic.
- 4What must you consider with transradial amputation?Fracture, dislocation, or peripheral nerve damage may delay prosthetic intervention.
Functionally better than amputations below this point. - 5What must you consider with wrist disarticulation?Difficult with cosmetic and function with prosthetic.
- 6What must you consider with partial hand amputation?During prosthetic training if it fails using toes to replace thumb could be an option.
- 7What must you consider with hemipelvectomy?Does not allow activation of prosthetic through a residual limb.
Initial motion is activated through WB. - 8What 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. - 9What must you consider with knee disarticulation?Able to WB through residual limb.
Watch out for gait deviations and hip flexion contractures. - 10What 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. - 11What must you consider with syme's amputation?Able to WB through residual limb.
Reeducate on WB through prosthetic and toe off phase during gait. - 12What must you consider with transmetatarsal and chopart's amputation?Reeducate on balance, WB, and proprioception.
- 13With 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. - 14What must you consider when wrapping with transtibial amputation?Promote full elbow extension 1st and anchor above the knee
- 15What must you consider when wrapping with transfemoral amputation?Promote full hip extension 1st and anchor around the pelvis
- 16What must you consider when wrapping with transradial amputation?Promote full elbow extension 1st
