Lower limb amputee survival.
A total of 1710 primary amputees have been studied over a 25 year period and their survival time has been calculated. These were all consecutive primary lower limb amputees admitted to the Dundee Limb Fitting Centre during the period 1965-1989. Overall, the median survival was 4 yr 9 mth for the below-knee amputee (1019 patients) and 4 yr 3 mth for the above-knee amputee (586 patients). The vas...
متن کاملAmputee mobility predictor-bilateral: a performance-based measure of mobility for people with bilateral lower-limb loss.
The Amputee Mobility Predictor (AMP) is an outcome measure designed to assess mobility and functional capabilities for people with unilateral lower-limb amputation. No comparable measure exists for those with bilateral lower-limb amputation (BLLA). The purpose of this study was to examine the utility of the AMP-Bilateral (AMP-B) to measure the ability to perform functional tasks related to part...
متن کاملLower-limb amputee needs assessment using multistakeholder focus-group approach.
To assess the needs of lower-limb amputees and identify differences between diabetic dysvascular amputees and traumatic amputees, we held a multistakeholder focus-group workshop whose participants included veteran lower-limb amputees, clinicians, researchers, and prosthetic device manufacturers. We conducted the initial workshop sessions as traditional focus-group meetings with homogeneous part...
متن کاملConsistency and accuracy of measurement of lower-limb amputee anthropometrics.
Lower-limb amputees often exhibit large fluctuation in residual-limb shape, necessitating careful observation and anthropometric measurement for prosthetists to ensure socket fit. Anthropometric measurement may become more important as an outcome measure indicating success in rehabilitation. This study investigated the accuracy and reliability of seven prosthetic anthropometric measurement devi...
متن کاملFunctional outcomes in a lower limb amputee population.
This paper reports an evaluation of 132 patients seen at the Nova Scotia Rehabilitation Centre amputee programme during a 24-month period, carried out to evaluate the programme's effectiveness. In addition to a review of charts, a questionnaire was used (85% return rate) to help determine functional outcomes. The patient profile revealed a 3.4:1 male-to-female ratio and an average age of 64.8 +...
