It is unclear whether the timing of the first prescription of the prosthesis contributes to the rejection rates. OBJECTIVE: To reveal whether scientific evidence is available in literature to confirm the hypothesis that the first prosthesis of children with an upper limb deficiency should be prescribed before two years of age. We expect lower rejection rates and better functional outcomes in children fitted at young age. METHODS: Langue : ANGLAIS |
