There is considerable variation in prosthetic prescription concerning the moment of initial prosthesis fitting and the use of replacement parts.OBJECTIVES: To produce an evidence-based guideline for the amputation and prosthetics of the lower extremities. This guideline provides recommendations in support of daily practice and is based on the results of scientific research and further discussions focussed on establishing good medical practice. Part 2 focuses on rehabilitation process and prosthetics.STUDY DESIGN: Systematic literature design.METHODS: Literature search in five databases and quality assessment on the basis of evidence-based guideline development.RESULTS: An evidence-based multidisciplinary guideline on amputation and prosthetics of the lower extremity.CONCLUSION: The best care (in general) for patients undergoing amputation of a lower extremity is presented and discussed. This part of the guideline provides recommendations for treatment and reintegration of patients undergoing amputation of a lower extremity and can be used to provide patient information.CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This guideline provides recommendations in support of daily practice and is based on the results of scientific research and further discussions focussed on establishing good medical practice. |
