  - title: Augmented Meaning
    entries:
      - Though this sign can sometimes be used to refer to any type of
        amputation, it usually only refers to an amputation at the upper arm. To
        show what type of amputation is being referred to, you move the 'cutting
        action' of the right arm around the body appropriately. For example, on
        the wrist for 'amputation of the hand', on the thigh for 'amputation
        above the knee', and so on.
