OBJECTIVES: To study driving behaviors after major lower-extremity amputations and to determine which factors influence return to driving after amputation. DESIGN: A cross-sectional study. SETTING: Data were collected from patients attending an outpatient amputee and prosthetics clinic between February 2001 and September 2001. PARTICIPANTS: A convenience sample (N=123). Inclusion criteria were: age greater than 18 years, unilateral or bilateral major lower-extremity amputation, minimum 1 year since prosthetic fitting, and active automobile driver within 6 months prior to amputation. Subjects had an average age of 63.4+/-12.1 years and were on average 6.8+/-8.3 years since amputation. Common causes for amputation were peripheral vascular disease (73.2%), trauma (13.8%), and tumor (12.2%). INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Driving habits after lower-extremity amputation. RESULTS: Overall, 80.5% of participants were able to return to driving an average of 3.8 months after amputation, although the majority reported a decreased driving frequency. Female sex (odds ratio [OR]=.08; 95% confidence interval [CI], .02-.34), age of 60 years or greater (OR=.16; 95% CI, .03-.74), right-sided amputation (OR=.13; 95% CI, .03-.52), and preamputation driving frequency of less than every day (OR=.18; 95% CI, .05-.69) were all significantly related to a reduced likelihood of return to driving postamputation. Items that did not have a statistically significant association with return to driving included level of amputation, reason for amputation, preamputation automobile transmission, and accessibility to public transit. Subjects with left-sided amputation had significantly fewer concerns about driving, while those with a right amputation frequently required vehicle modifications (40.6%) or switch to a left-foot driving style for braking (81.3%) and accelerating (65.6%). Common barriers to return to driving included preference not to drive, fear and/or lack of confidence, and related medical conditions. CONCLUSIONS: The majority of subjects with major lower-extremity amputation were able to return to driving after major lower-extremity amputation. Major automobile modifications are commonly performed by right-sided amputees. Several predictors of return to driving and barriers preventing return to driving were identified. 相似文献

Marques CJ, Cabri J, Barreiros J, Carita AI, Friesecke C, Loehr JF. The effects of task complexity on brake response time before and after primary right total knee arthroplasty.
Objective
To study the effects of an increase in task complexity on brake response time (BRT) in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Design
A prospective repeated-measures design was used. The measurements took place 1 day before and 10 and 30 days after surgery.Setting
Clinic.Participants
The data of patients (N=21) who were admitted for primary total arthroplasty of the right knee were pooled for analysis.Interventions
On each measurement day patients performed 5 practice and 10 test trials for 2 tasks (1 simple, 1 complex) in a car simulator. Task complexity was increased by adding a second movement to the first task performed.Main Outcome Measures
BRT, reaction time (RT), and movement time were assessed.Results
An increase in task complexity increased BRT, RT, and movement time at all measurement times. Right TKA increased BRT by increasing movement time. Thirty days after surgery BRT was no longer increased compared with preoperative values in both tasks.Conclusions
Task complexity consistently increased BRT and its components. The effects of task complexity remained constant throughout the 3 measurements. After right TKA, we suggest patients should be advised to wait 30 days after surgery before resuming driving. 相似文献3.

Objective
To examine resumption of driving after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its relation to community integration.Design
Cross-sectional cohort study; survey and cognitive data.Settings
Inpatient rehabilitation hospital of the Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems and community.Participants
Persons (N=261) ranging from 3 months to 15 years postinjury.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Barriers to Driving Questionnaire, Driver Survey, Community Integration Measure, and Craig Hospital Assessment and Reporting Technique.Results
Forty-four percent of survivors had resumed driving; of nondrivers, 48% reported a strong desire to resume driving. Nondriver survivors who sought to resume driving generally rated themselves as currently fit to drive, viewed themselves as having physical and cognitive profiles like those of survivor drivers, and reported their greatest barriers to driving as social and resource related. However, cognitive functioning was similar to nondriver survivors who did not seek to resume driving and significantly worse than survivors who were currently driving. Nondrivers showed poorer community integration than did drivers, even after accounting for injury severity, social support, negative affectivity, and use of alternative transportation. Use of alternative transportation was common among nondrivers, but it was unrelated to community integration outcomes. Cognitive functioning moderated risk of adverse incident: among survivors with low cognitive functioning and high self-estimates of driving ability, which is indicative of unawareness of deficit, adverse incidents showed positive relation to amount of driving and inverse relation to cognitive functioning.Conclusions
Driving status has unique and independent association with post-TBI community integration. Additional research is needed to evaluate transportation barriers that undermine full engagement in community living after TBI and to determine which barriers to driving reflect valid risk to survivors and the public. 相似文献4.
Lin S-J, Bose NH. Six-minute walk test in persons with transtibial amputation.
Objective
This study was to report the within-day test-retest reliability and the measurement properties of the six-minute walk test (6MWT) in persons with lower-limb (transtibial) amputation.Design
Test-retest study design.Setting
University research laboratory.Participants
Subjects (N=13) with transtibial amputation (9 men and 4 women; mean age, 46y).Interventions
Three trials of the 6MWT were conducted within 1 day with 20 to 30 minutes of rest between consecutive trials. Timed Up & Go (TUG) test and timed one-leg balance tests were conducted on another day.Main Outcome Measures
(1) Distance, heart rate, symptoms and signs of exercise intolerance during the walk test, (2) times of the TUG test and the one-leg balance test.Results
The intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC3,1) value was .94. Bland and Altman graphs showed no systemic variations between trials and a small learning effect. The peak heart rate approximated 72% to 78% of the age-predicted maximal heart rate. Moderate degrees of correlation were observed in: (1) the 6MWT versus the TUG test (r=–.76, P<.05), and (2) the 6MWT versus the timed prosthetic-leg stance (with eyes open: r=.63, P<.05; with eyes closed: r=.61, P<.05).Conclusions
These findings suggest that the 6MWT could be considered as a reliable measure of functional capacity, involves a moderate degree of exercise intensity, and is related in a moderate degree to postural control abilities in persons with transtibial amputation. 相似文献5.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the responsiveness to change and the floor and ceiling effects of the Houghton Scale. DESIGN: One-week and 3-month test-retest to evaluate reliability, validity, and responsiveness to change. SETTING: Amputee rehabilitation program. PARTICIPANTS: Persons (N=125) with unilateral or bilateral lower-extremity amputation who were wearing a prostheses: 1 group (n=49) for the reliability component and another group (n=76) for the responsiveness and validity component. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Responsiveness to change, ceiling and floor effects, and reliability and convergent validity. RESULTS: Evaluation of responsiveness to change (n=76) showed that the total score increased from a mean +/- standard deviation of 6.14+/-2.40 at discharge to 7.70+/-2.62 (P<.001) at follow-up 3 months later. Floor and ceiling effects were not detected for the overall score but were noted for the individual subscales. The internal consistency was moderate at discharge (Cronbach alpha=.71) and follow-up (Cronbach alpha=.70). The Houghton Scale correlated significantly, although moderately, with the physical composite score of the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (r=.393, P<.01) and the 2-minute walk test at admission (r=.620, P<.01) and discharge (r=.653, P<.01). The reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient=.96) of the Houghton Scale was high (n=49). CONCLUSIONS: The Houghton Scale is appropriately responsive to change in prosthetic use in individuals with lower-limb amputation after rehabilitation. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To examine if previously reported clinical tests of stepping and functional mobility could discriminate between multiple-falling and nonmultiple-falling people with unilateral transtibial amputations. DESIGN: Nonrandomized prospective cohort. SETTING: Rehabilitation hospital and general community. PARTICIPANTS: Forty-seven subjects initially recruited and tested at discharge. Forty subjects were retested at 6 months postdischarge and grouped as either multiple fallers (n=13) or nonmultiple fallers (n=27). INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Four Square Step Test (FSST), Timed Up & Go (TUG) test, 180 degrees turn test, and the Locomotor Capabilities Index (LCI) advanced score. RESULTS: Significant differences (P<.01) were found between the 2 groups for all of the main outcome measures. The test scores associated with an increased risk of having multiple falls were as follows: TUG test of 19 seconds or more (sensitivity, 85%; specificity, 74%), turn time of 3.7 seconds or more (sensitivity, 85%; specificity, 78%), turn steps 6 steps or more (sensitivity, 100%; specificity, 74%), FSST of 24 seconds or more (sensitivity, 92%; specificity, 93%), and LCI advanced score of 15 or less (sensitivity, 43%; specificity, 91%). CONCLUSIONS: In this study, multiple-falling people with transtibial amputations displayed impaired mobility on the outcome measures reported. These measures offer valuable clinical tests of different and functionally relevant activities and provide good identification of multiple-falls risk. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To examine postacute care rehabilitation services use after dysvascular amputation. DESIGN: State-maintained hospital discharge data from the Maryland Health Services Cost Review Commission were analyzed. SETTING: Maryland statewide hospital discharge database. PARTICIPANTS: Persons discharged from nonfederal acute care hospitals from 1986 to 1997 with a procedure code for lower-limb amputation (ICD-9-CM code 84.12-.19), excluding toe amputations. Those persons with amputations due to trauma, bone malignancy, or congenital anomalies were excluded. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Postacute care service utilization. RESULTS: There were 16,759 discharges with an amputation procedure over this period. The average age was 69.3+/-14.3 years, and 51.9% were men. Black persons comprised 42.4% of the sample. Diabetes was present in 42.0%, and peripheral vascular disease was noted for 66.1% of amputees. Amputations were at the foot (19.4%), transtibial (38.1%), and transfemoral (42.4%) levels. The largest proportion (40.6%) of patients was discharged directly home after acute care, 37.4% went to a nursing home, 9.2% went home with home care, and 9.6% were discharged to an inpatient rehabilitation unit. From 1986 to 1997, there were downward trends in the rate of discharges directly home and corresponding upward trends in nursing home and inpatient rehabilitation dispositions. CONCLUSIONS: Inpatient rehabilitation use is infrequent after dysvascular amputation. Prospective studies are necessary to examine outcomes for persons receiving rehabilitation services in different care settings to define the optimal rehabilitation venue for functional restoration. 相似文献

Su P-F, Gard SA, Lipschutz RD, Kuiken TA. Differences in gait characteristics between persons with bilateral transtibial amputations, due to peripheral vascular disease and trauma, and able-bodied ambulators.
Objectives
To examine differences in gait characteristics between persons with bilateral transtibial amputations because of trauma and peripheral vascular disease (PVD); and to compare that with data from able-bodied controls that were previously collected and maintained in a laboratory database.Design
Observational study of persons with bilateral transtibial amputations.Setting
A motion analysis laboratory.Participants
Nineteen bilateral transtibial amputees.Intervention
No experimental intervention was performed. To standardize the effect of prosthetic foot type, subjects were fitted with Seattle Lightfoot II feet 2 weeks before quantitative gait analyses.Main Outcome Measures
Temporospatial, kinematic, and kinetic gait data were recorded and analyzed.Results
Results showed that the freely selected walking speeds of subjects with PVD and trauma were 0.69m/s and 1.11m/s, respectively, while that of able-bodied control subjects was 1.20m/s. When data were compared on the basis of freely selected walking speed, numerous differences were found in temporospatial, kinematic, and kinetic parameters between the PVD and trauma groups. However, when data from similar speeds were compared, the temporospatial, kinematic, and kinetic gait data demonstrated no statistically significant differences between the 2 amputee groups. Although not statistically significant, the PVD group displayed increased knee (P=.09) and hip (P=.06) flexion during the swing phase, whereas the trauma group displayed increased pelvic obliquity (P=.06). These actions were believed to represent different strategies to increase swing phase foot clearance. Also, the PVD group exhibited slightly greater hip power (P=.05) before toe-off.Conclusions
Many of the differences observed in the quantitative gait data between the trauma and PVD groups appeared to be directly associated with their freely selected walking speed; the trauma group walked at significantly faster freely selected speeds than the PVD group. When their walking speeds were matched, both amputee groups displayed similar gait characteristics, with the exception that they might use slightly different strategies to increase foot clearance. 相似文献12.

Schultheis MT, Manning K, Weisser V, Blasco A, Ang J, Wilkinson ME. Vision and driving in multiple sclerosis.
Objective
To examine the relationship between measures of visual dysfunction and driving performance in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS).Design
Between-group comparison.Setting
All data were collected in an outpatient research setting.Participants
Persons (N=66) with MS of the relapsing remitting type (26 self-reporting visual difficulties; 40 self-reporting no visual difficulties) and 26 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Measures of vision included visual acuity, depth perception, and color perception. Driving was measured using documented accident/violation rate and self-reported driving behaviors.Results
Quantitative analysis only revealed that MS persons with self-reported visual difficulties performed significantly worse than healthy controls on color perception (Kruskal-Wallis; χ22=8.89, P=.01). There were no group differences on driving behaviors, and correlational analysis revealed a lack of relationship between the selected visual (visual acuity, depth perception, color perception) and driving performance measures (documented accident/violation rate and self-limiting driving behaviors).Conclusions
Persons with MS who self-reported difficulties with vision had acceptable visual acuity, despite demonstrating impairment in color perception. The fact that visual acuity remains the most common measure for visual fitness to drive remains problematic. There is a need to further define measures of visual dysfunction relevant to driving among this clinical population. 相似文献14.
目的了解康复训练对脑损伤患儿视觉反应时的影响及其在残疾儿童脑功能评价和康复疗效分析中的作用。方法观察组为51例脑损伤患儿,对照组为29例正常儿童,均进行光刺激的复杂视觉反应时测试,并比较观察组康复训练前、后的反应时成绩。结果观察组训练前各项反应时成绩明显较对照组延长(P〈0.01)。训练后观察组的反应时成绩则明显改善(除左侧第二反应时),第一反应时与对照组差异无统计学意义(P〉0.05);中度障碍的观察组患儿训练后反应时的改善程度最明显。结论脑损伤患儿注意力和反应速度均有异常,但经过训练后可有明显改善。反应时作为一种简单、易测、灵敏、客观的神经心理活动指标,在残疾儿童高级脑功能评价和康复疗效分析中具有重要意义。 相似文献

Schultheis MT, Weisser V, Ang J, Elovic E, Nead R, Sestito N, Fleksher C, Millis SR. Examining the relationship between cognition and driving performance in multiple sclerosis.
Objective
To identify cognitive predictors of driving performance after multiple sclerosis (MS).Design
Prospective design examining predictive value of cognitive measures on driving performance.Setting
All data were collected in an outpatient research setting and an outpatient driver rehabilitation program.Participants
Participants were community-dwelling persons (N=66) with clinically defined MS (86% relapsing-remitting, 14% progressive) with a mean age of 43.47 years. All were active drivers who met vision requirements established by their respective states, and none required adaptive driving equipment.Intervention
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Participants were administered a comprehensive neuropsychologic assessment and a clinical behind-the-wheel (BTW) driving evaluation. Additional measures of driving performance included history of traffic violations and collisions (since MS onset).Results
Logistic regression indicated that information processing speed (Symbol Digit Modality Test [SDMT]) was the strongest predictor of BTW performance. A logistic regression revealed that the strongest predictors of collision and violation frequency were visuospatial learning and recall (7/24 Spatial Recall Test [SPART 7/24]).Conclusions
These findings indicate that information processing and visuospatial skills are predictive of driving performance among persons with MS. These measures (SDMT and SPART 7/24) may serve as screening methods for identifying the potential impact of cognitive impairment on driving. Furthermore, the findings raise questions regarding the appropriateness of the BTW evaluation to evaluate driving difficulties accurately among individuals with MS. 相似文献16.

Objective
To examine the relationship between third ventricular width, a measure of thalamic brain atrophy, and motor vehicle violation type and frequency in a cohort of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).Design
Retrospective cohort study.Setting
Tertiary care university hospital.Participants
Thirty-five individuals with clinically confirmed relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and 35 age-, sex-, and education-matched community-dwelling healthy comparisons (N=70). Participants were aged between 25 and 65 years.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Data on motor vehicle violations were obtained from an online database (Iowa Courts Online). The violations were categorized as follows: (1) speeding, (2) nonmoving safety, (3) administrative, (4) alcohol-related offense, (5) moving safety, and (6) total violations. Neuropsychological performance in all major cognitive domains was obtained. Thalamic atrophy for the patients with MS was determined via third ventricular width measurement.Results
The MS group had a greater number of overall violations, administrative violations, and nonmoving safety violations. The groups differed on neuropsychological tasks measuring visuospatial skills, speeded language, learning, and executive functioning, after controlling for affective symptoms. Third ventricular width was associated with total violations as well as moving safety violations. Finally, third ventricular width accounted for a significant variance in driving violation frequency above and beyond demographic variables and neuropsychological factors.Conclusions
There is an increased frequency of motor vehicle violations among patients with multiple sclerosis, and the number of violations can be predicted by thalamic brain atrophy. 相似文献18.

OBJECTIVE: To establish the adaptation strategy transtibial amputees use after mass perturbation of their prosthetic lower leg. DESIGN: We investigated whether the measured adaptations to mass perturbation of the lower leg in transtibial amputees can better be described as (1) a kinetic invariance strategy in which kinetics (joint torques) remain the same while kinematics (joint angles) change or (2) a kinematic invariance strategy in which kinematics remain the same while kinetics change. SETTING: A gait laboratory. PARTICIPANTS: Ten transtibial amputees. INTERVENTIONS: Five different mass conditions. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Measured joint torques and angles during the swing phase in the different mass conditions. RESULTS: Mass perturbation induced more significant changes and larger effect sizes in joint torques than in joint angles. CONCLUSIONS: Transtibial amputees adapt to mass perturbation primarily by maintaining the same kinematic pattern and adjusting their joint torques, that is, they use a kinematic invariance strategy. This implies that manipulating prosthetic inertial properties does not directly influence gait kinematics and that inertial properties should be evaluated in terms of the energetic cost of the swing phase. 相似文献

Objective
To estimate the extent to which body structure, function, activity, and context explain driving resumption at 1 year.Design
Cohort study with relationships modeled in a path analysis.Setting
Three urban Canadian communities.Participants
Patients admitted to hospital with acute stroke who had driven before their stroke (n=290) who participated in a longitudinal study of stroke outcomes.Main Outcome Measures
Driving resumption 1 year after the initial stroke diagnosis.Results
One hundred seventy-seven patients (61%) returned to driving after 1 year. Direct relationships were found between measures of strength and motor activity (Stroke Impact Scale), cognition (Mini-Mental State Examination), type of stroke (hemorrhagic vs ischemic), and driving resumption at 1 year. The effects of stroke severity, fatigue, and sex on driving resumption were mediated through strength and motor activity shown by a model that had excellent fit (comparative fit index=.985, Tucker-Lewis Index=.952, root mean square error of approximation=.046).Conclusions
There are multiple direct and indirect influences on driving resumption at 1 year, from the type of stroke, physical strength and motor activity, cognition, sex, and fatigue measured at 3 months. The paths outlined by this model highlight how stroke sequelae influence community mobility, as well as factors related to driving resumption that are amenable to intervention. 相似文献20.
