Innovative Prosthetic Device: New Materials Technologies and Patients' Quality of Life (QoL) Improvement

An amputee patient is a patient who has lost not only a part of his body but also the annexed function. The loss of an eye an arm or a dental element entails a loss of function reflected in a systemic adaptation by the organism to compensate for it. Moreover it is reflected in important psychological consequences. The purpose of this Special Issue is to collect as many articles and information about new rehabilitation techniques in the biomedical and bioengineering field as possible. In all organism districts the focus is on the innovation of a certain material or a specific technique without neglecting the influence on a patients quality of life.
