[Analysis of quality of life in persons after arm amputations].
This study presents an analysis and an evaluation of the quality of life in patients after amputations of the upper extremities, basing on functional anamnesis, tests and a questionnaire about daily activity. Patients after unilateral upper extremity amputations are more proficient at both daily activities and two-handed activities than patients after amputations of both extremities. Patients with amputations below the elbow joint were found to be more proficient at two-handed activities compared to patients with amputations above the elbow joint. Daily activities with performed with the same degree of ease by both patients with amputations below the elbow joint and above the elbow. This proves that that the elbow joint maybe functionally replaced relatively easily. Patients with ambilateral amputations at arm level were more proficient with daily activities than two-handed activities.
