Hi:
I recently joined the "amputee clinic" team in our hospital.... there is a question always rises from the team which is how many session does an AKA/BKA need for pre and post prosthetic programs, So I need basic milestoenes to guide me in such planning if there is any .
Thanks

You might try this book (unless you've already got one, that is):

Lower Extremity Amputation -- A Guide to Functional Outcomes in Physical Therapy Management (Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago Publication Series)

You can usually get it used for about $30 bucks from online text book vendahs.
