Development of overuse musculoskeletal conditions after combat-related upper limb amputation: a retrospective cohort study

Jill M. Cancio et al.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study examines the one-year incidence of overuse musculoskeletal injuries in Service members with different levels of combat-related upper limb amputation compared to those with minor combat-related upper limb injuries. The study found that the incidence of developing at least one musculoskeletal overuse condition after upper limb amputation was between 60% and 65%. Service members with upper limb amputations were 2.7 to 4.7 times more likely to develop overuse upper limb conditions compared to those with minor injuries.
