This rise in prevalence presents significant healthcare and economic challenges, necessitating innovative, data-driven solutions to improve patient care, quality of life (QOL) and healthcare equity. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has taken a leading role in addressing these challenges by supporting the creation of a national registry to capture comprehensive data on limb loss and limb difference. This registry collects crucial patient information that helps inform both clinical care and research.

However, advances in data analytics are contemporizing the field by offering insights into patient outcomes and informing more effective healthcare policies. A registry allows for the consolidation of this data into valuable information, providing a holistic view of patient demographics, clinical outcomes and the effectiveness of treatments over time. Limb loss and limb difference place a substantial financial burden on individuals and healthcare systems, with lifetime healthcare costs averaging $509,275 for someone with limb loss, compared to $361,200 for those without
