The main purpose of the study is to reveal the early and late changes in the walking characteristics of patients with lower extremity amputation. Secondly, it is planned to reveal the factors affecting the walking characteristics of patients with amputation and to compare individuals with different levels of amputation in terms of clinical outcome measures.
It is important to investigate the long-term changes in walking characteristics of patients with amputation and the factors affecting walking characteristics in these patients regarding prosthesis rehabilitation.

| investigation of the factors affecting walking characteristics | Other | In order to investigate the factors affecting walking characteristics, 2-minute walking test, 10-point VAS (overall prosthesis satisfaction level, socket comfort and satisfaction level, knee joint satisfaction level, prosthetic foot satisfaction level, pain level in amputated extremity) and locomotor capacity index will be applied. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| 2-minute walking test | Walking distance will be evaluated using the two-minute walking test (2MWT). Patients will be instructed to walk quickly, safely, and as much distance as possible along a rectangular path. | through study completion, an average of one month |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Visual Analog Scale | All patients will mark the severity of amputated extremity pain on a Visual Analog Scale (VAS; from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain)). The socket system comfort and satisfaction, knee joint satisfaction, prosthetic foot satisfaction and overall prosthesis satisfaction will be evaluated with a 10-point VAS (from 0 (absolutely dissatisfied) to 10 (absolutely satisfied)). | through study completion, an average of one month |

| Locomotor capacity index | The Locomotor Capabilities Index (LCI) is a validated measure of lower-limb amputees' ability to perform activities with prosthesis. The total LCI score is the sum of the item scores and can range from 0 (worst) to 30 (best). | through study completion, an average of one month |
