The data were analyzed based on the content analysis.Results: The results of this study revealed five main themes including perceived threats for the loss of a limb, changes in life, well-being problem, need to be understood and acceptance of loss of a limb and prosthesis.Conclusion: The patients with LOWER LIMB AMPUTATION participating in this research required adequate and correct knowledge about AMPUTATION and psychological needs and supports.
