Health care workers who specialize in orthotics and prosthetics (O&P) help these patients regain their mobility by fitting them with artificial limbs (prostheses) and orthopedic braces (orthoses).
At the highest level, O&P practitioners perform a detailed assessment to determine the patient's O&P needs and asses the patient's functional status, including muscle development, gait, sensory function, range of motion, joint stability and skin integrity.
