Relative mortality and long term survival for the non-diabetic lower limb amputee with vascular insufficiency

Abstract: On a well defined non-diabetic amputation group with vascular insufficiency consisting of 10,191 amputations during the period 1982 to 1992 the Standard Mortality Rate (SMR) and the long term survival (Kaplan-Meyer) were analysed. The SMR for the total group was 8.6 (8.4–8.9) times the expected mortality the first year after amputation, decreasing to 3.2 (3.3–3.4) the second year. SMR in relation to age, gender and level of amputation was analysed. In the long term survival studies the median survival time (50… Show more

“…Риск смерти в течение 30 дней после больших ампутаций составляет от 4% до 30% и риск развития осложнений, таких как инфаркт миокарда, инсульт, или инфекция, от 20% до 37%. В течение первых 2 лет после установления диагноза КИНК риск смерти после большой ампутации почти вдвое выше, чем среди больных, которым удалось сохранить конечность [72], а 50-процентный порог смертности достигается уже ко второму году после усечения конечности [48,65]. Трудности в реабилитации больных после ампутаций и протезирования у многих пожилых пациентов отрицательно влияют на отдаленные результаты и качество жизни.…”

“…Dies entspricht epidemiologischen Langzeitvergleichen aus anderen Länden [13,14]. Diese Tatsache wird hauptsächlich durch die demografische Entwicklung und die damit verbundene Multimorbidität der Amputiertenpopulation erklärt [15]. Daher bleibt die Behandlung amputierter Patienten ein wesentlicher Kostenfaktor im Gesundheitswesen und eine Herausforderung für ein multidisziplinäres Rehabilitationsteam.…”
