Project overview
The aim of the project is to understand how to use routinely collected healthcare data, in a patient-centred way, to improve experience and recovery of people using a prosthesis following lower limb amputation. We will work in partnership with a group of patients and clinicians to co-produce the research. The findings will be used to make recommendations for patient-centred data collection approaches in prosthetic care. This will help patients and clinicians use healthcare data to improve recovery and enable better research. Recommendations could be used by local limb centres or nationally as the foundations for large scale data collection initiatives in prosthetic care.
