I have patient post 1 week elective BKA second severe pain due to osteoarthitis of the ankle, referred to me by an orthopedic doctor. The Rx is for a temporary prosthesis. A doctor at United Healthcare is suggesting that we wait until the suture line is completely healed before we start weight bearing w/ a prosthesis. He even suggested skipping the temp and waiting to fit the definitive. I am looking for outcome studies that I can fax to him to justify getting the patient up and going with a prosthesis asap. Thanks in advance, Zach Harvey, CPO
