Upper Limb Amputation

Upper Limb Amputation

Upper extremity amputations are a procedure commonly done in a variety of circumstances including infection, trauma, cancer, disease progression or congenital malformations. The level at which the amputation occurs can greatly impact a patient’s outcomes and level of care required by health care professionals. This activity aims to review anatomy, indications, surgical techniques and special considerations/complications that may arise so that an interprofessional team may provide optimal care to patients who may need this procedure.
