Summary

Lower limb amputation affects not only physical mobility but also psychological well-being, body perception, and involvement in daily and social life. Although prosthetic use is essential for restoring mobility, rehabilitation outcomes may be influenced by multiple physical and psychosocial factors. Understanding the relationships between prosthetic satisfaction, body image, and activity and participation may contribute to improved rehabilitation planning after amputation.

This observational, cross-sectional study aims to investigate the relationships between prosthetic satisfaction, body image, and activity and participation outcomes in adults with unilateral lower limb amputation who use a prosthesis. The study includes adults with unilateral transtibial amputation who have been using a prosthesis for daily activities.

Participants complete standardized self-report questionnaires to assess prosthetic satisfaction using the Trinity Amputation and Prosthesis Experience Scales, body image perception using the Amputee Body Image Scale, and activity and participation based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework.

Activity outcomes focus on the ability to perform daily physical tasks such as standing, walking, stair negotiation, and mobility on different surfaces. Participation outcomes focus on involvement in daily routines, social interactions, transportation, work, and leisure activities.

Statistical analyses are planned to examine the associations between prosthetic satisfaction, body image, and activity and participation outcomes, while considering demographic and prosthesis-related factors such as age and duration of prosthesis use.

Interventions

OTHER

No intervention (observational study)

No intervention was administered as part of this study. This was an observational, cross-sectional study in which participants received no experimental treatment, device, or behavioral intervention. Data were collected during a single assessment session using self-report questionnaires to evaluate prosthetic satisfaction, body image, and activity and participation based on the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) framework.
