Abstract
Our goal is to provide a current review of health disparities in patients with dysvascular lower extremity amputation, so that we can better identify how disparities persist after an amputation and how to reduce these disparities. Health disparities in amputation risk, level, and outcomes exist in the USA based on race/ethnicity, gender, income, insurance, care provider, hospital, neighborhood, and US region. While health disparities exist for patients with dysvascular lower extremity amputation, little is known about differences in function, rehabilitation, and prosthesis prescriptions. Future research in this area is important, so that we can better identify how disparities persist after an amputation.
