The purpose: bilateral transfemoral amputation poses both a rehabilitation and a societal problem. Although it is not a common diagnosis, its physical and psychological impact is significant. Our goal is not only to improve the patient's locomotion but also to resocialise the patient.
Materials and methods: our file consisted of patients diagnosed with bilateral transfemoral amputation who underwent 8 weeks of comprehensive rehabilitation treatment between July 2015 and June 2019. Data were assessed retrospectively and then statistically processed.
Results: based on our observation, we can evaluate the positive impact of complex rehabilitation treatment. There has been an improvement in the self-sufficiency rate in the FIM score.
Conclusions: in our work we confirmed the positive effect of complex active rehabilitation treatment by improving the level of self-sufficiency in normal daily activities. Timely and comprehensive rehabilitation has a positive impact not only on self-sufficiency, locomotion but also on social reintegration.
