KOMPARASI TINGKAT KEMAMPUAN FUNGSIONAL PASIEN POST AMPUTASI TRANSTIBIAL ANTARA PENGGUNA TRANSTIBIAL PROSTHESIS DENGAN PENGGUNA KRUK AXILLA

Abstract

Abstract : Functional Ability, Transtibial Prosthesis, Axilla Crutches. Research objectives to know the patient's functional ability level comparisons of post transtibial amputation between users of transtibial prosthesis with user of axilla crutches. Research methods pre-experiment with cross-sectional approach. Subject 16 respondents divided into two groups, 8 respondents for users of transtibial prosthesis group and 8 respondents for users of axilla crutches by using purposive sampling technique. Place the patients of Bedside Teaching Poltekkes Kemenkes Surakarta in 2016 Karisidenan Surakarta houses and transtibial post amputation patient BBRSBD Prof. Dr Soeharso Surakarta in 2016-2017. Time May to June 2017. Data analysis hypothesis test result by using mann whitney test shows the value of the probability (p-value) of 0.028 < α = 0.05 so that H0 rejected and the H1 accepted which means that
there is a functional ability level comparisons between users of transtibial prosthesis with users of axilla crutches where the mean rank of the functional ability of the measurement results on the user of transtibial prosthesis 10.88 is higher than on mean rank user of axilla crutches 6.12. Conclusion This study shows that the use of transtibial prosthesis is better than the use of axillary crutch on the functional ability level of transtibial post amputation patient.
