• Collaborative appointments with patients and prosthetists ensure accurate assessment of functional needs and appropriate technology selection
• Technology advancements including osseointegration, pattern recognition for upper extremities, and K2 microprocessor knees are changing patient options
• Proper socket fit, liner replacement, and supply management significantly impact patient comfort and functional outcomes
• Interdisciplinary approaches with surgeons, PM&R specialists, and prosthetists lead to better amputee care from surgery through rehabilitation
