Clinicians and researchers from the University of Colorado Limb Restoration Program share their insights into how current clinical outcomes fail to capture the myriad benefits and challenges of bone-anchored limbs, and how novel transdisciplinary and patient-centered outcomes can be used to monitor and optimize clinical care.

Learning Objectives:

Describe best practices for osseointegration and the interdisciplinary team approach to preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative care
Identify gaps that current clinical outcomes leave in describing patient function and quality of life and explore how novel transdisciplinary and patient-centered outcomes can provide new insights into patient experiences with bone-anchored limbs
Discuss unique aspects of bone-anchored limb care and how capturing transdisciplinary and patient-centered outcomes can tell a more holistic story of living with a bone-anchored limb
