Summary

Aim:
The aim of the thesis was to evaluate the ability of walking with prosthesis in lower limb amputees. We evaluated the effect of amputation level on functional walk tests results in different groups of amputees during their first and second hospital stay.

Methods:
A retrospective analysis was conducted with data collected from August 2014 to December 2015 in Department of Rehabilitation University Hospital Hradec Kralove. Functional tests were measured in 37 transfemoral and transtibial amputees at the beginning and at the end of their first hospital stay. Other group concluded of 17 transfemoral and transtibial amputees of their second hospital stay. The evaluation was carried out on the basis of the following functional tests: Parallel bars test, the Timed Up and Go Test, 10 Meter Walk Test. The average length of hospital stay was 19.5 days.

Results:
68 % of transtibial amputees were able to undergo all of the tests during their first hospital stay. The majority of transtibial amputees (90 %) were able to undergo most difficult tests during their second hospital stay. 50 % of transfemoral amputees were able to undergo all of the tests during their first hospital stay with comparison with 42,9 % transfemoral amputees during their second hospital stay.

Conclusions:
The results suggest that patients with unilateral transtibial amputation got better results in functional walk tests than patients with transfemoral amputation. The level of leg amputation had influence on walking with prosthesis.
