Bilateral BKABilateral BKA• Jake, 25 y/o male involved in a MVA resulting in
bilateral BKA, # L femur, dislocated L shoulder, and extensive burns to torso and legs. Patient had ORIF L leg and is NWB for 12/52 post-op, and required skin grafts to legs and torso. His upper limbs have FROM and strength.
• Patient is now 6/52 and just arrived to the rehabilitation ward. Previously Jake was fit and active, played sport socially, lived independently and worked full time in a relatively sedentary job. He would like to return to his job and living independently after rehab.

Bilateral BKABilateral BKA
1. What are the treatment priorities for this patient given their goals?
2. What factors may limit the progress of this patient?
3. What level of mobility would you expect this patient to achieve? What issues may effect this outcome?
4. How would this differ for other 2BKAs?

Bilateral AK/BK- Current status
• Independent with personal cares• Requires assistance to t/f to wheelchair
but is then independent on indoor surfaces• D/C destination to be determined• Demands a prosthesis to be able to walk
![Page 9: Brainstorming Bilaterals](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062218/56816024550346895dcf2b4c/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Bilateral AK/BK -Social history
• Previously lone liver, socially isolated.• Received assistance for
cooking,shopping,housework.• Fitted with interim prosthesis 8 yrs ago but
refused to use it.• Poor compliance with rehab in past.

Bilateral AK/BK-Discussion
• Would bilateral prostheses be appropriate for this pt ?
• What should treatment focus on ?• What else needs to be considered for this
pt to return home ?

Bilateral BK/TMT - Bilateral BK/TMT - DiscussionDiscussion
• What factors may have lead to the 2nd amputation? (preventable or not)
• What issues may effect her recovery and discharge?
• What considerations need to be made regarding prosthetic prescription?

Bilateral AKABilateral AKA• Prosthetic fitting:
“Seal in” liners
• Gait training – Where do you start?– what level of mobility is
should you expect?
