Quality of life among lower limb prosthetic users in Jordan: a cross-sectional study using the Arabic SF-36
Lower limb prosthetic users in Jordan experience moderate impairments in physical QoL domains, particularly among older adults. Emotional and social domains were relatively preserved. Demographic factors, especially age and gender were associated with differences in specific QoL outcomes and should be considered in the development of personalized rehabilitation strategies.
