ORTHOPEDIC MANAGEMENT OF ORTHOTICS AND PROSTHETICS | COMPLETE QUESTIONS
WITH 100% RATED CORRECT ANSWERS | GRADED A+ | 2025/2026 LATEST UPDATE
Ideal Prosthesis/Orthosis A device meeting user needs functionally, comfortable,
cosmetically appealing, easily fabricated, and economically viable
Strength Maximum external load that can be withstood
Stiffness Stress/strain or force-to-displacement ratio
Durability Ability to withstand repeated loading
Density Weight per unit volume
Corrosion resistance Resistance to chemical degradation
Ease of fabrication Equipment and techniques needed to shape it
Plastic Material
Metal Strong, lightweight and noncorrosive material
, Carbon Fiber Composites Material
Interface Material Cushioning for comfort and fit
Prefabricated orthoses Used if patient's measurements are within guidelines and proper fit
and function are not compromised
Custom fabricated orthosis Required if prefabricated orthoses are not suitable
Progressive splints Modified as patient progresses with rehab, offering greater to lesser
support and increase in ROM
Dynamic splinting Uses spring or tension rod joints to apply constant resistance or
assistance; tension is adjustable
Static splinting Holds the joint in a specific position
Upper extremity orthoses Support fingers, hand, and wrist, allowing free ROM for
unaffected joints
Fracture Splinting Compression method for stabilization
