6 SEPTEMBER 2024Alex D'souzaManaging Editoreditor@healthcarebusinessreview.comProsthetics and orthotics (P&O) care has evolved significantly, with technological advancements enhancing the functionality and comfort of these devices. However, the success of P&O interventions extends beyond the provision of well-designed prosthetic limbs or orthotic devices. Rehabilitation is crucial in optimizing patient outcomes and ensuring individuals regain mobility, independence, and quality of life. Rehabilitation services are essential for enhancing mobility and functionality, managing pain, preventing secondary complications, providing psychological support, and improving the overall quality of life.Integrating physical therapy with P&O care is essential for achieving optimal patient outcomes. Physical therapists play a pivotal role in rehabilitation, working closely with prosthetists, orthotists, and other healthcare professionals. They conduct thorough assessments to understand the patient's physical capabilities, goals, and potential challenges and design personalized strength and conditioning programs to target muscles essential for device operation. Functional mobility training helps patients master skills such as climbing stairs, navigating uneven terrain, and getting in and out of vehicles. Education and self-management are also promoted through guidance on the proper use and care of prosthetic or orthotic devices. The collaborative efforts of healthcare professionals in delivering personalized and holistic care underscore the importance of rehabilitation in the journey toward recovery and independence for individuals with prosthetic and orthotic needs.This edition on Prosthetics and Orthotics 2024 features Cornerstone Prosthetics & Orthotics and delves into how service providers offer individuals life-changing solutions.
