Abstract

An editorial is presented which discusses the future for virtual military amputee support. The authors emphasize that the successful treatment from a traumatic injury resulting in an amputation is dependent on care from clinical providers and peer support. They consider the stages of recovery from amputation. They look at the applications of virtual worlds.
