Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship of hip muscle thicknesses measured by ultrasonography with hip flexion and extension strength and clinical parameters in prosthesis users with unilateral traumatic transfemoral amputation.

This study will be useful in understanding whether ultrasonography is an appropriate imaging method in the follow-up of changes in functional strength in the hip girdle in patients with unilateral traumatic transfemoral amputation.

Interventions

Learn about the drugs, procedures, or behavioral strategies being tested and how they are applied within this trial.

Isokinetic evaluations

Peak torque and total amount of work of hip flexors and extensors will be determined by the Cybex 6000 model computer-aided isokinetic system.

Intervention Type OTHER

Ultrasonographic evaluations

Ultrasonographic evaluations will be performed with a 5-12 MHz linear probe (Logic e portable; GE Healthcare, China). The thicknesses of the hip flexor (psoas major) and extensor (gluteus maximus) muscles will be measured while the patient is in the prone position, in accordance with the literature.

Intervention Type OTHER
