Main Research Question >>> Can 3D printed limbs be a more effective alternative to conventional prosthetic limbs? GOOD -- NEED TO DEFINE WHAT IS EFFECTIVE IN THIS INSTANCE. MIGHT INCLUDE SOME INFORMATION REGARDING THE BASIC PROBLEMS WITH THE PRESENT APPROACH TO THIS MEDICAL NEED --
I. First Sub Question – Can 3D printed prosthetic limbs be more cost effective than conventional prosthetic limbs? GOOD
A. First Body paragraph theme will be >>> The cost of material for creating 3D printed limbs.COMPARE WITH CONVENTIONAL METHOD -- GOOD >>> BUT YOU MIGHT START WITH "B"
B. Second Body paragraph theme >>> The cost of material for creating conventional prosthetic limb.
C. Third Body Paragraph theme >>> Comparing the cost of shipping 3D printed limbs versus conventional prosthetic limbs. OK
D. Fourth Body Paragraph Theme >>> Comparing the accessibility of each for low-income families - OK -- DOES COST ALSO INCLUDE TRAINING TO USE COSTS -- MEASUREMENT COSTS-- OTHER COSTS
II. Second Sub Question – What are the health benefits of 3D printed prosthetic limbs compared to conventional prosthetic limbs? GOOD -- START WITH THE HEALTH PROBLEMS OF CONVENTIONAL APPROACHES
. First Body paragraph theme >>> The weight of 3D printed prosthetic limbs compared toconventional prosthetic limbs
A. THIS IS "B" ? Second Body paragraph theme >>> Compare the opinions of how users of the model “Cyborg Beast” felt with the model, compared
to users of prosthetic limbs. HOW DOES THIS RELATE TO THE SECTION QUESTION - VERIFY
B. Third Body Paragraph theme >>> Compare comfortability between 3D printed prosthetic limbs and conventional prosthetic limbs. IS COMFORT PART OF "HEALTH"?
III. Third SECTION Sub Question – Which is more convenient between 3D printed prosthetic limbs and conventional prosthetic limbs? NOT SURE WHAT THIS IS ASKING -- DEFINE CONVENIENT? - EASY TO USE?
A. First Body paragraph theme >>> Compare the time span after surgery to be fitted with and utilize 3D printed prosthetic limbs versus conventional prosthetic limbs. OK
B. Second Body paragraph theme >>> Compare the customization of 3D printed prosthetic limbs to conventional prosthetic limbs. OK
C. Third Body Paragraph theme >>> Compare the potential wait time of receiving 3D printed prosthetic limbs compared to conventional prosthetic limbs. ISN'T THIS THE SAME AS "A"?
D. Fourth Body Paragraph theme >>> Compare the global reach of 3D printed limbs versus prosthetic limbs NOT CLEAR WHAT THIS MEANS -- THAT IT CAN BE ACCESSED BY THIRD WORLD COUNTRIES???
THIS IS A GREAT START ON A FINAL OUTLINE
