OBJECTIVE: To determine the correlation between the stump circumference at different levels (at tibial tubercle, 4-cm, 8-cm and the distal end) with the stump volumes in below knee amputees.
DESIGN: Cross sectional descriptive design.
SETTING: King Chulalongkorn Memorial Hospital and Sirindhorn National Medical Rehabilitation Center
PARTICIPANTS: Fifty five unilateral below knee amputees were recruited from the outpatient rehabilitation department.
MEASUREMENT: Residual limb volumes of each subject were measured by water displacement method with volumeter and measured different circumferences level with a tape twice for each method.
RESULTS: The Pearson correlation coefficients of residual limb volume and circumference at tibial tubercle level, 4- and 8- cm from the tubercle, and distal end level were 0.814, 0.892, 0.878, and 0. 715, respectively.
CONCLUSION: The results revealed significant correlation in all levels studied. Maximum correlation coefficient was observed at 4 centimeters below tibial tubercle.
