Sex, age, and other barriers for prosthetic referral following amputation and the impact on survival

William Shutze et al.

Summary: The study retrospectively analyzed patients undergoing lower extremity amputation, finding that factors such as age, sex, diabetes, ASA score, and smoking history were associated with prosthetic referral, while BMI, previous arterial procedure, level of amputation, and stump revision were positively correlated with referral. Increasing age, higher ASA class, black race, and BMI were associated with reduced survival, while prosthetic referral was found to be protective for survival.
