CLINICAL SERVICES

The Department of Prosthetics and Orthotics, SIPM&R, is the leading institute of its kind in Sindh and has improved the quality of life of patients through multidisciplinary amputee rehabilitation services. Our goal is to make patients self-sustaining, confident, hopeful and independent.

We offer O.P.D services and care through an appointment-based operating system of 08:30 am to 03:00 pm. The Department provides good quality, free/from low-cost orthotics and prosthetics services for people with disabilities.

We also design and manufacture Custom Based Prostheses (Artificial limbs) for the replacement of lost limbs due to trauma, disease, and congenital limb deficiencies. Our experts assist you to regain activities and functionality through prostheses.

FACILITIES

  • The clinical department is well-developed and well-structured consisting of a fully equipped cast room, workshops, molding, lamination, and machine rooms with modern technology equipment and tools.

Cast room

Prostheses and orthoses must fit precisely to ensure not only proper functioning but also acceptance by the patient. A plaster cast created with functional factors in mind is a prerequisite for ensuring good contact between the prosthetic socket and the residual limb.

GAIT ROOM

Gait training is a critical component of prosthetic & orthotic rehabilitation, helping individuals regain their ability to walk and perform daily activities with greater ease and confidence.

The gait training improves walking ability, increases endurance and strength in affected limbs, balance, and stability, and promotes independence improving the overall quality of life.

  • Specialized gait rooms and proficient physiotherapists are available for the improvement of the physical capability of patients

Community-Based Rehabilitation

Community-Based Rehabilitation (CBR) activities are offered as per WHO standards. Our team focuses on the identification of people with disabilities who need orthosis and prostheses so that, young people and adults with disability can acquire education, training, and employment.
