Overview

Randomized controlled trial demonstrates significant improvements in balance confidence and community participation among lower limb prosthesis users, suggesting a multi-faceted approach is effective.

Key Points

  • Intervention showed strong effects on balance confidence, community participation, and functional mobility.
  • At least one outcome in three of four domains achieved significant group-level effects, benefiting over 30% of participants.
  • Incorporated cognitive behavioral therapy and physical therapy exercises to address both psychological and physical challenges.
  • First study to specifically evaluate balance confidence interventions in lower limb prosthesis users, highlighting its potential impact.
