Residual Limb Health Measurement and Monitoring: Overview and Future Directions

The Extremity Trauma and Amputation Center of Excellence (EACE) is proud to host the monthly Limb Trauma Educational Series

Topic: Residual Limb Health Measurement and Monitoring: Overview and Future Direction

Presenter: Molly Baumann, Ph.D

Live Session: April 22, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. 

In this insightful presentation, participants will explore critical takeaways surrounding residual limb health and its adaptation to socket wear. There is a growing need for a better understanding of how residual limbs respond to prolonged socket use, and existing technologies offer promising avenues for implementation and advancement in this area. By understanding the changes in residual limb health, clinicians and researchers can better predict and prevent skin breakdown, allowing patients to continue using their prosthetic sockets with greater comfort and confidence.
