Of which, at Thang Binh Regional Medical Center, 100 people were supported and at Binh Trung Medical Station, 20 people were supported.

At two locations, doctors from the Danang Orthopedic and Rehabilitation Hospital examined and measured each patient directly, and tried on prosthetic limbs and orthopedic devices to assess fit and suitability.

Based on these results, the doctor adjusts and perfects the design to ensure the product fits the defect location, avoiding errors that affect the patient's body.

After completing the procedures, the tools are sent to the factory to be manufactured according to individual specifications. It is expected that after 2-3 weeks, the disabled person will receive the finished product, helping to make daily life and travel more convenient.
