Call for Abstracts
We warmly invite submissions from prosthetists, orthotists, technicians, support workers, managers, researchers, educators, learners, and wider AHP colleagues. You are encouraged to submit an abstract for either a 15 minute oral presentation or a poster presentation on any topic related to the theme Beyond the Device.
This theme recognises that prosthetic and orthotic care extends far beyond reducing pain or improving movement. Beyond the Device reflects the broader impact these interventions have on peoples lives, including supporting individuals to remain in or return to work and education, enabling independent living, reducing the need for acute care, and contributing to improved mental health, confidence, and self-esteem.泭泭泭
The theme may encompass a range of collaborative efforts, whether within your own team, across multidisciplinary teams, between stakeholder groups, or in partnership with your professional body. We are particularly interested in presentations that demonstrate how collaboration has contributed to improved service user outcomes, innovative service redesign, or successful project delivery.
