Relationships Among Perceived Functional Capacity, Self-Efficacy, and Disability After Dysvascular Amputation

ConclusionsThis study provides initial evidence that the relationship between self-reported functional capacity and disability is partially mediated by self-efficacy after dysvascular TTA. The longitudinal effect of self-efficacy should be further examined to identify causal pathways of disability after dysvascular amputation. Furthermore, additional factors contributing to the relationship between self-reported functional capacity and disability need to be identified.Level of EvidenceTo be determined.
