Consensus statement on prehabilitation and rehabilitation of osseointegration patients.

Rehabilitation protocols vary according to the osseointegration (OI) implant system and the institutions implanting bone-anchored limbs (BALs). While there are limited peer-reviewed OI publications quantifying details for optimizing surgical candidacy and rehabilitation protocols to ensure support across the BAL spectrum, the authors recommend a multidisciplinary team approach over the user's lifetime. Breakout sessions at the Global Collaborative Congress on OI (GCCO) were convened around key topics, including rehabilitation. Current best practice, gaps in the literature, and needs for future research were captured. The authors used these findings along with the available peer-reviewed literature and expert opinion to frame the consensus statements presented in this article. The authors present 3 consensus statements describing each phase of care-preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative.
