PPT-PROSTHESIS INTRODUCTION Used to replace a missing limb or provide functions of an absent

Replaced organ must be functional and cosmetically ideal It must perform its purpose Must be easy to maintain It must be comfortable for the patients and easy to don on or don off Person fabricating a prosthesis for patients is termed as Prosthetist. Through this process an exact match to the details of the entire hand can be achieved The prosthetic finger or hand is fabricated out of a flexible transparent silicone rubber Colors dispersed in the silicone are carefully matched to the individuals Introduction.

We are now developing a similar technology for prosthetic legs, but we first need to evaluate the algorithms to control the prosthetic leg. . 528 The American Journal of Orthopedics ® W ith the recent increase in the number of patients with a lower extremity amputated because of combat-related injury, there may be an increase in the n SUMMARY region, and a divided tyrosine kinase domain.
