Adults with lower-limb (LL) amputation have difficulty dual-tasking which may elicit falls and is required for instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). The purpose of this study was to explore the relationships between dual-task performance, falls, and IADLs for Veterans with LL amputation. A cross-sectional study was completed with dual-task performance, retrospective fall reporting, and participation in IADLs. Dual-task performance varied across participants ( = 24) and although it was not significantly correlated to IADL participation, the relationships between dual-tasking, falls, and IADLs warrants further study to maximize dual-task training that can translate to everyday life.
下肢截肢的成年人在进行双重任务时存在困难,这可能会引发跌倒,而日常生活活动(IADL)则需要进行双重任务。本研究的目的是探讨下肢截肢退伍军人的双重任务表现、跌倒和日常生活活动之间的关系。通过双重任务表现、回顾性跌倒报告和参与日常生活活动完成了一项横断面研究。双重任务表现在参与者(n = 24)中各不相同,虽然它与参与日常生活活动没有显著相关性,但双重任务、跌倒和日常生活活动之间的关系值得进一步研究,以最大限度地提高可转化为日常生活的双重任务训练。
