Abstract

The Patient Experience Measure (PEM) was designed to assess psychosocial experiences of upper limb prosthesis users. While the PEM has been validated in a national study, differences in PEM scores based on participant characteristics have not been investigated yet. We present a secondary analysis of survey data demonstrating significant differences in PEM scores by amputation laterality (unilateral vs. bilateral), amputation level, and prosthesis type.
