contents <p>The migration of skilled professionals from developing countries to more developed regions has a significant impact on healthcare delivery, particularly in specialized fields such as prosthetics and orthotics. This study examines the causes, trends, and consequences of brain drain in the prosthetics and orthotics workforce, highlighting its effects on patient care, training programs, and service availability. Key factors contributing to migration include limited career growth, inadequate remuneration, and insufficient research and training opportunities. The paper also explores strategies to mitigate workforce loss, including policy reforms, incentives for retention, and international collaboration. Findings underscore the urgent need for sustainable workforce planning to ensure equitable access to prosthetic and orthotic services globally.</p>
