How do patients with diabetic amputation choose prosthetics?

With living standards improve, more and more people suffer from diabetes. Some amputation patients cause amputations due to other accidents, but they have diabetes themselves, and some patients have amputations due to diabetes. So what should be paid attention to when installing this type of diabetic amputation patients?

First of all, if there is diabetes before the accident, the symptoms of these patients should be relatively low, and the complications of diabetes are still within the controllable range. Such patients will determine the type of assembly through the clinical examination of the prosthetic company according to their own conditions. Prosthetic limbs generally use full contact, because the prosthetic limb receiving cavity helps blood circulation at the end of the residual limb.

If it is due to diabetic foot amputation patients, most of these patients are accompanied by lower extremity nerve and vascular disease, especially vascular disease, which is likely to cause lower limb blood circulation obstacles and insufficient blood supply. After amputation treatment, the vascular lesions of the lower extremity did not alleviate, and the blood supply of the lower extremity was still insufficient, which may lead to further necrosis and endanger life. In diabetic feet, wounds are not easy to heal, so diabetic patients must pay attention to comfort, and do not let the residual limb be injured again. For patients with amputation caused by this type of diabetic foot, it is recommended to use a gel sleeve or a silicone sleeve to protect the skin. As for the technician, it is full-contact or point-convergent in the production process. In short, I hope to make the residual limbs have more stress area during production. Therefore, it cannot be absolute to answer such questions , and needs to be combined with the patient's personal situation.
