Ontario Framework for Lower-Limb Preservation

The Ontario Framework for Lower-Limb Preservation is an evidence-informed best-practice roadmap. The framework highlights the key care activities, minimum care requirements and key considerations for a model of care to optimize the delivery of sustainable best-practice lower-limb preservation care and maximize positive patient outcomes while minimizing health care costs. The purpose of this framework is to provide guidance to lower-limb preservation providers, organizations and champions around the regional planning, development, delivery, and adoption of standardized, integrated lower-limb preservation services in Ontario. The overall goal is to reduce non-traumatic major lower-limb amputations in Ontario.
