FOREWORD
This IndianStandard ( Part I ) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards, after the draft finalized by the Artificial Limbs, Rehabilitation Appliances and Equipment for the Disabled Sectional Committee had been approved by the Medical Equipment and Hospital Planning Division Council.
This standard ( Part 1 ) is one of a series establishing a vocabulary of terms used in the field of external limb prosthetics and external orthotics. It defines general terms used to describe external limb prostheses and orthoses. The other parts in this series are:
Part 2 Terms relating to external limb prostheses and wearers of these prostheses, and
Part 3 Terms relating to external orthoses.
In the preparation of this standard, assistance has been derived from IS0 8549 - 1 : 1989 ‘Prosthetics and orthotics - Vocabulary - Part 1 : General terms for external limb prostheses and external orthoses’, issued by the International Organization for Standardization ( IS0 ).

PROSTHETICS AND ORTHOTICS- VOCABULARY
PART 1 GENERAL TERMS FOR EXTERNAL LIMB PRQSTHESES AND EXTERNAL ORTHOSES
1 SCOPE
1.1 This standard ( Part 1 ) establishes a vocabulary of general terms used in the field of external -limb prosthetics and external orthotics, the anatomy of those parts of the human body most commonly fitted with these prostheses and orthoses, and the personnel and procedures involved in the practice of prosthetics and orthotics.
1.2 It does not apply to breast or other external prostheses used to replace other parts of the human body, to dental prostheses or orthoses, nor to internal prostheses and orthoses. Nor does it apply to orthoses that only encompass limb segments ( that is, orthoscs used in fracture treat- ment and sports medicine 1.
NOTES
1 For the purpose of this standard, the abbreviated term ‘prosthetics’ and its derivatives only apply to external limb prosthetics and the abbreviated term ‘orthotics’ and its derivatives only apply to external orthotics.
2 The terms printed in quotation marks are defimd elsewhere in this part( Part 1 ) of the standard.
