The authors investigated ways to improve the results of rehabilitation during the course of their clinical practice. During the last 2 years, amputation was performed on 136 patients and 50 patients were supplied with temporary protheses. 38 patients out of 50 answered the question form supplied. After analysis of the question form, the authors summarized the possibilities to improve the results of prolonged mobilisation and rehabilitation. This programme stresses the need for 1. early mobilisation-teaching to walk and 2. care of body and soul.
