(Z44.0) Fitting and adjustment of artificial arm (complete)(partial)

Fitting and adjustment of an artificial arm (complete or partial) involves the process of customizing the prosthetic device to the body of the user, so that it fits comfortably and functions properly. this includes taking measurements of the limb, as well as adjusting the alignment and tension of the joints and components. it also includes fine-tuning the control system, so that the user can operate the device with ease.

The pathogenesis of fitting and adjustment of artificial arm (complete or partial) is a complex process that involves a wide range of medical and surgical interventions. this process begins with a thorough evaluation of the patient's medical history, physical examination, imaging studies, and other tests to determine the best type of prosthesis and the most appropriate fitting and adjustment. this involves careful measurements of the patient's body and limb, as well as the selection of the right type of prosthetic components. after the fitting and adjustment process is completed, the patient must undergo a period of rehabilitation to learn how to use the prosthesis effectively.

Main Goal: Treating the Disease with Fitting and Adjustment of Artificial Arm (Complete/Partial)

• Assessment of the patient's current physical condition and lifestyle.
• Review of medical history and any existing medical issues.
• Evaluation of the patient's range of motion and strength.
• Assessment of patient's comfort level with the device.
• Selection of the appropriate artificial arm and its components.
• Fitting of the artificial arm to the patient.
• Adjustment of the device to ensure proper fit and function.
• Training on the proper use of the device.
• Follow-up visits to monitor the patient's progress.

Prevention of fitting and adjustment of artificial arm (complete or partial) involves regular physical check-ups, wearing protective gear during activities that could cause injury to the arm, and avoiding activities that could put the arm at risk of injury. additionally, proper nutrition and exercise can help to strengthen the arm and reduce the risk of injury.
