Cover has some wear and soiling. The author was a Colonel in the Medical Corps of the United States Army. He was Chief of the Surgical Service at Walter Reed General Hospital and was the Director of Surgery, at the Army Medical School in Washington, DC. On the basis of his experiences at General Hospital No. 3 and Walter Reed, Maj. Gen. Kirk studied 1700 patients with amputation, and operated on more than 700 of them in the short time period just after World War I. He published a monograph of his experiences in 1924. The volume, Amputations, summarized his experiences in caring for those who sustained limb loss during World War I. In Amputations, Maj. Gen. Kirk recognized that surgeons did not routinely follow their patients through the continuum of care and were often unfamiliar with what factors influenced their patients’ outcomes. He had the advantage of continuity of care, and he carefully followed those with limb loss as they arrived from overseas, as well as during the several ensuing months through wound closure, stump healing, and initial prosthetic fitting. Although patients with limb loss often presented complex wounds and injuries, Maj. Gen. Kirk’s approach to care was relatively straightforward: Produce a good residual limb, which will allow for better prosthetic fitting, and therefore, better function and amputation for the patient. Because of its associated low infection rate, he recommended the “open circular” amputation, in which the surgeon performs the surgery at the lowest level of viable tissue. More
