Physical activity is associated with positive patient and clinical outcomes following dysvascular major lower limb amputation

Beschrijving

Objective: To determine the association between physical activity (PA; duration and intensity) and patient and clinical outcomes at various measurement occasions post dysvascular major lower limb amputation (LLA). Methods: In this multicenter longitudinal observational study, the PA levels of adults who underwent dysvascular major LLA (n = 81) were assessed using the adapted Short Questionnaire to Assess Health-enhancing Physical Activity questionnaire (total hours, hours of moderate/vigorous, and metabolic equivalent of task-hours/week), at
