Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the effects of virtual reality applications on quality of life, performance, balance, prosthesis adaptation and gait parameters in individuals with transtibial amputation. 20 Transtibial amputee were included in study. All participants were using transtibial prothesis with active vacuum system at least 1 year. Participants were divided into two groups. While a group of virtual reality applications were being performed additionally standart physiotherapy, only standard physiotherapy methods were applied in the second group. Balance and gait practices were performed for each group. Individuals were treated for 3 days a week for 4 weeks, and individuals were evaluated before and after treatment. Individuals were evaluated for quality of life, performance, balance, prosthesis adaptation and time-distance parameters of walking.
