PURPOSE: This study determines barriers and facilitators to including people with lower limb amputation (LLA) in cardiovascular rehabilitation programmes (CRPs).
METHOD: Canadian CRP managers and exercise therapists were invited to complete a questionnaire.
RESULTS: There were 87 respondents. Of the 32 CRP managers, 65.6% reported that people with LLA were eligible for referral, but of these, 61.9% only accepted people with LLA and cardiac disease, and 38.1% only accepted them with ≥ 1 cardiovascular risk factor. CRP eligibility progressively decreased as mobility severity increased, with 94% of programmes accepting those with mild mobility deficits but only 48% accepting those with severe deficits. Among therapists in CRPs that accepted LLAs, 54.3% reported not having an LLA participant within the past three years. Among all responding therapists and managers who were also therapists (n = 58), 43% lacked confidence in managing safety concerns, and 45%, 16%, and 7% lacked confidence in prescribing aerobic exercise to LLA with severe, moderate, and no mobility deficits respectively. There was a similar finding with prescribing resistance training. LLA-specific education had not been provided to any respondent within the past three years. The top barriers were lack of referrals (52.6%; 30) and lack of knowledge of the contraindications to exercise specific for LLA (43.1%; 31). Facilitators included the provision of a resistance-training tool kit (63.4%; 45), education on exercise safety (63.4%; 45), and indications for physician intervention/inspection (63.6%; 42).
CONCLUSION: Most of the CRPs surveyed only accept people with LLA if they have co-existing cardiac disease or cardiovascular risk factors. Few people with LLA participate. Education on CRP delivery for LLAs is needed to improve therapists' confidence and exercise safety.
