- W2325971213 abstract "Purpose/Hypothesis: Many individuals perceive the loss of a body part as a devastating occurrence, affecting various aspects of their well-being. Although amputation may be considered a life-saving measure, individuals who incur amputation often experience negative long-term psychological and psychosocial effects, which may prohibit them from re-integrating into society and living normal lives. Numerous underlying demographic factors, such as level of amputation, time since amputation and co-morbid conditions have been associated with psychological adjustments of lower limb amputees. The purpose of this study was to compare the psychosocial constructs of body image and self-esteem in relation to reported health performance quality of life in older individuals who lost a limb early in life versus those who lost a limb later in life. Number of Subjects: The participants were recruited from a private practice prosthetic clinic. Subjects included in the data analysis were over the age of 50, had a single lower limb amputation, and used a prosthesis. Eleven subjects who experienced a lower limb amputation before the age of 25 were compared to a group of 35 participants who experienced a lower limb amputation after the age of 50. Materials/Methods: A series of questionnaires, including the Amputee Image Body Scale (ABIS), Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale (RSES), Geriatric Depression Scale-short form (GDS), Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS), and Medical Outcomes Survey-Short Form 36 (SF-36) were distributed to an accessible population of people with amputation. Results: Individuals who experienced a lower limb amputation before the age of 25 had significantly less concern with body image and higher self-esteem than those who experienced an amputation after the age of 50. When gender, age, level of amputation, time since amputation, and number of co-morbid conditions were controlled for in data analyses, significant differences remained between the under-25 group and the over-50 group for body image and self-esteem. No significant differences were found between groups for reported health performance quality of life. Conclusions: Whether a lower limb amputation occurs in early or late life, apparent differences exist in quality of life between older persons with amputation and age-adjusted healthy norms. Additionally, differences exist in persons across all age groups for body image and self-esteem. Clinical Relevance: Rehabilitation efforts must therefore continue to address all aspects of the physical and psychosocial domains of health if successful outcomes for older adults with amputation are to be achieved." @default.
