Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: All consecutive patients in our centre (Radboud university medical centre) who underwent BAP surgery after May 2014 were eligible for this study. All assessments are part of usual care. Patients are eligible for press-fit BAP surgery if: a) they are adults with a lower extremity amputation suffering from socket-related problems contributing to limited prosthetic use; b) cause of primary amputation is a trauma, tumour resection or stable vascular disease.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Exclusion criteria for surgery are a medical history of severe cognitive or psychiatric disorders.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main study parameters are: a) function level defined as kinematics in coronal plane (degrees), hip abductor strength (Nm/kg), prosthetic use (Q-TFA PUS: 0-100), back pain ('no', 'episodes', 'yes'), and stump pain (NRS: 0-10); b) activity level defined as mobility level (MFC-level: 0-4; SIGAM WAP mobility score: A-F; use of aids in daily life: 'wheelchair-bound’, ‘walking frame / rollator’, ‘two crutches / canes’, ‘one crutch / cane’, ‘none’; Timed up and go: seconds) and walking ability (6-minute walking test: meters; walking distance in daily life: meters); c) HRQoL (Q-TFA GS: 0-100); d) satisfaction level defined as prosthesis comfort (0-10) and global perceived effect (‘extremely poor’, ‘poor’, ‘average’, ‘good’ or ‘extremely good’).
