The 2-class prognostication model has a high accuracy which can be used early post-amputation to predict if patient would be ambulant with a prosthesis post rehabilitation. The 3-class prognostication model has moderate accuracy and is able to further differentiate the walking ability to either homebound or community ambulation with a prosthesis, which can assist in prosthetic prescription and setting realistic rehabilitation goals.
