Metric Charcteristics of Sit-to-stand Tests in Patients After Lower-limb Amputation

Summary

The aim of the study is to assess various aspects of reliability and validity of two sit-to-stand tests, the Five Times Sit to Stand Test (5TSTS) and the 30-Second Sit to Stand Test (30SSTS). The tests will be performed by patients after lower-limb amputation who have been newly fitted with a prosthesis. Each test will be performed with and without the prosthesis on two occasions: on the first day when the patients will be able to walk independently with their prosthesis and two weeks later. On the same two occasions, the patients will also perform three walking tests (in randomised order): the L-test, the 10-Metre Walk Test and the 6-Minute Walk Test. In addition, the patients will repeat the 5TSTS and the 30SSTS one day after the first assessment. The results will be used to detect the presence of a floor effect, assess repeatability and concurrent validity, as well as estimate minimal detectable change and effects size for the effect of rehabilitation.
