A prosthetist provides care to patients with partial or total absence of a limb by
evaluating, designing, fabricating, fitting, and aligning those artificial limbs known as
prostheses. At the request of, and in conjunction with physicians, the prosthetist
assists in formulating prescriptions for prostheses and examines and evaluates the
patients’ prosthetic needs in relation to the functional loss. In providing a prosthesis,
the prosthetist is responsible for formulating its design and selecting materials and
components; making all necessary casts, measurements, model modifications, and
layout; performing fittings, including static and dynamic alignments; evaluating the
prosthesis in the patient; instructing the patient in its use; and maintain patient records;
all in conformity with the prescription. The prosthetist is expected to keep abreast of
new developments concerning prosthetic patient care.
