What level of disability is right upper limb amputation 1, and what level of disability is right upper limb amputation?

There is no uniform standard for disability appraisal in China. Different disability appraisal standards apply to different disabled objects and reasons, and the parties can choose the correct appraisal standards according to their own specific conditions. The same is true of amputation of the right upper limb.

2. Precautions after amputation

2. 1, prevent residual limb contracture and maintain a good posture.

2.2. Use elastic bandage at any time after operation, until the prosthesis is put on.

2.3. Stick to the method on the third or fourth day after operation: touch first, then pat, and then knead. At least three times a day, each time lasting 15 minutes. This can promote skin firmness, reduce pain, promote venous blood and reduce edema.

2.4. Pay attention to the hygiene of the residual limb: wash it with good quality neutral soap every day, keep it dry, and pay attention to abnormal conditions and discomfort, such as redness, swelling, blisters and broken skin. Remember not to daub anything on the residual limb without a doctor's prescription.

2.5 when there is a wound on the stump, the dressing should be changed daily, kept dry, and the wound should be observed frequently. Besides the wound, the periphery still needs to be taken care of.

2.6. Phantom limb pain: Abnormal sensations such as fever, burning sensation, pulsating sensation, biting pain, colic, immobility, etc. often appear at the end of the residual limb, which will be improved or disappeared after proper rehabilitation and wearing artificial limbs.

2.7. Wear a prosthetic limb as soon as you get up and wear it all day to prevent edema, which is similar to tying a bomb to get the ideal shape of the stump.

2.8, pay attention to the residual limb socks with pure wool is the best, keep dry, change 1-2 times a day, pay attention to gently wash with neutral soap, flat to dry, to prevent loosening.

3. What is phantom limb pain?

Phantom limb pain, also known as phantom limb pain, mainly refers to the subjective feeling that the amputated limb still exists, accompanied by severe pain, and the pain mostly appears at the distal end of the amputated limb, but this is an illusion.

Neuroma, a common complication after amputation: Experts say that the severed nerve ends will always form neuromas. The pain caused by neuroma is often caused by the compression and traction of the surrounding scar tissue. It is generally believed that the key factor to prevent it is the treatment of nerve stump during operation. The proximal end of the nerve should be cut sharply and retracted into the normal soft tissue of the stump. In the process of wearing prosthesis, if there is neuroma pain, the prosthetic socket should be treated to avoid oppression and friction.

Functional training after amputation: After the condition is stable, besides moving joints, the residual limb should be massaged, and the residual limb should be evenly pressed, massaged, slapped and stamped every day, and soft objects should be gradually pushed hard, so that the skin of the residual limb will be tough and the muscle strength will be enhanced, twice a day, each time 15~30 minutes or appropriately extended times, to prepare for the installation of artificial limbs; Urge upper limb amputees to carry out early shoulder and elbow joint activities; Lower limb amputation can sit up the movable medullary joint and knee joint, and its amplitude gradually increases; You can also do phantom leg and knee joint training, that is, imaginary ankle joint training and knee joint training.

Bearing training of residual limbs: different amputees are given different guidance, and upper limb amputees focus on training the mobility and muscle strength of scapula, chest, back and shoulder joints; For patients with lower limb amputation, guide and gradually support crutches to the ground and be accompanied by guards to prevent falling. Functional exercise should be gradual. In the early stage, it can help patients to practice one-legged walking or walking on crutches as soon as possible from sitting training in bed to kneeling balance, and then to standing balance, so as to train good walking function.
