  • Skin preparation with amputee patients

    Dear Members,

    We are starting a project investigating gait patterns with surface EMG
    in lower limb amputee patients. The majority of these participants are
    elderly vascular patients.

    I would appreciate any feedback regarding skin preparation for this
    population, as shaving and especially abrasion may cause the
    skin to break.

    A summary of responses will be posted.

    Thank you.
