Abstrakt: Dear Editor, Amputations of digits account for the majority of upper extremity devascularization injuries. We evaluated the interaction effect between recovery time and number of injured digits to examine any potential PRO differences between single digit amputation and multi-digit amputation patients ([3]). In multi-digit replantation patients, MHQ, PROMIS, SF-36 MCS and SF-36 PCS had statistically significant maximal recovery times of 37.5, 38.4, 31.1 and 34.8 months postoperatively (Figure 2).
