Are you a researcher or healthcare provider for people with limb loss or limb difference? Do you have limb loss or limb difference yourself? Do you live in the USA?

 Dr. Sarah Moudy< <URL Redacted> >, Graci Finco, and I are looking for people to complete a brief survey on preferred terminology to use when referring to this population and their limbs.

This survey is IRB-approved, anonymous, and should take less than 20 mins to complete.

If you are interested in participating in this research study, please take the survey at this link: terminology preference survey< <URL Redacted> >
We appreciate your help to inform patient-centered practices in O&P.
Thank you!
