A Mixed-methods Study on Prosthesis Use Among Older Canadians With Lower-limb Amputations.

The emergence of profiles suggests variability in how older adults with LLA use their prosthesis after rehabilitation. However, the factors affecting prosthesis use were similar between the profiles. Therefore, while it is important for rehabilitation teams to consider patients' individual needs when setting goals for prosthetic training, they must also consider common factors affecting prosthesis use.
