Ukraine Prosthetic Assistance Project is a project that aims at improving prosthetics and rehabilitation services in Ukraine through global exchange among the field specialists. At least once a year, for three consecutive years to 2018, a team of prosthetic and rehabilitation specialists from a number of countries (USA, Canada, Great Britain, Australia) travel to Ukraine as volunteers to share their expertise with Ukrainian counterparts. They have worked collaboratively with Ukrainian specialists on fitting complex cases of limb amputations with appropriate prostheses and demonstrated the multidisciplinary approach to patient care, which is only starting to develop in Ukraine. Since the start of the full-scale war in Ukraine, the specialists have been meeting online. The on the ground missions are set to resume as soon as possible and safe. History Ukraine Prosthetic Assistance Project was founded by a high school teacher, Antonina Kumka, who immigrated to Canada from Ukraine, and an American CPO, Jon Batzdorff. In 2014, due to the Russian military intervention in Ukraine, many military and civilians were severely wounded by shelling and landmines. Many lost one or more limbs. The Ukrainian prosthetists and healthcare professionals were not prepared for such high numbers of amputees with war-related injuries, which they have never had to deal with before. The government of Ukraine was gradually increasing funding for prosthetics, however no funds were allocated for professional development of the local specialists. Most of the amputees, especially with upper limb losses in 2014 ended up being sent abroad without proper medical follow up arranged for them upon their return to Ukraine. Kumka decided to investigate a solution to the problem. She talked to some wounded Ukrainian soldiers and realized that many of them were not able to receive adequate prosthetic care and service in Ukraine due to lack of knowledge and exposure to a variety of prosthetic components and rehabilitation techniques of the Ukrainian specialists. Paying tens of thousands of dollars to send one amputee abroad for fitting was not a sustainable option. After weeks of searching, Kumka contacted Jon Batzdorff, an American CPO and President of the American branch of International Society of Prosthetics and Orthotics. Batzdorff runs a non-profit, Prosthetika, which aims to deliver prosthetics related humanitarian help and education to countries where it is most needed. Batzdorff agreed to help. In less than four months, a team of six specialists-volunteers (certified prosthetists, physiotherapists and occupational therapists) from Canada and USA
