Standardizing Lower Limb Stump Measurement by altairayush is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study presents a clinical standard for stump measurement and classification in lower limb amputees, focusing on 93 below-knee stumps. It identifies key parameters such as stump length, shape, and skin condition, and discusses the impact of muscular atrophy and oedema on stump volume during the first 12 weeks post-amputation. The findings emphasize the need for systematic evaluation to improve prosthetic fitting and address common issues like pain and skin damage.
