Children's amputee mobility predictor—Assessing the functional capability of children with leg length discrepancy
The Children's Amputee Mobility Predictor is a comprehensive outcome measure that requires minimal equipment or space. It appears stable over time when used by the same physical therapist and results suggest that it may be used by multiple physical therapists. The Children's Amputee Mobility Predictor appears to measure important and relevant aspects of functional capability and be a meaningful and relevant assessment tool, helping to guide the determination of medical necessity for specific prosthetic and physical therapy interventions.
