Children were divided into two groups; congenital amputees (n=20) and acquired amputees (n=20). The children underwent prosthetic fitting, prosthetic training and rehabilitation. The Child Amputee Prosthetics Project - Functional Status Inventory (CAPP-FSI) and Prosthetic Upper Extremity Functional Index (PUFI) were used at the initial visit to the prosthetic unit without prosthesis, 3 weeks after the prosthetic training and 6 months after discharge with and without prosthesis. The results with and without the prosthesis were compared between the acquired and congenital amputee groups.\\r\\nResults: There were significant differences in all tests performed at the baseline, at the 3rd week, and at the 6th month without prosthesis and at the 3rd week and at the 6th month with prosthesis (p&lt;0.05). The congenital group received higher scores in the CAPP-FSI and PUFI at the baseline, at the 3rd week and at the 6th month (p&lt;0.05). Patients in the congenital group used their prostheses for 8 hours a day and the acquired group for 4 to 8 hours.\\r\\nConclusion: Daily prosthesis usage time and the child s experience with the prosthesis during daily activities are the determining factors for the functional level in upper limb child amputees. Functionality may improve based on these factors.\n\n\n\u00d6zet\n\nAma\u00e7: \u00c7al\u0131\u015fman\u0131n amac\u0131 edinsel veya konjenital \u00fcst ekstremite kayb\u0131 olan \u00e7ocuklar\u0131n rehabilitasyon program\u0131ndan sonra fonksiyonel seviyelerini de\u011ferlendirmekti.\\r\\n\u00c7al\u0131\u015fma plan\u0131: \u00c7al\u0131\u015fmaya 8-17 ya\u015flar\u0131 aras\u0131nda, \u00fcst ekstremite kayb\u0131 olan toplam 40 \u00e7ocuk kat\u0131ld\u0131. \u00c7ocuklar konjenital (n=20) ve edinsel (n=20) amp\u00fcte olmak \u00fczere 2 gruba ayr\u0131ld\u0131 ve protez e\u011fitimi ve rehabilitasyon program\u0131na tabi tutuldular. \u00c7ocuklar\u0131n fonksiyonel de\u011ferlendirmeleri \u00fcnitemize ba\u015fvurduklar\u0131nda protezsiz, 3 haftal\u0131k protez e\u011fitimi bitti\u011finde ve protezleri tamamland\u0131ktan 6 ay sonra protezli ve protezsiz olarak \u00c7ocuk Amp\u00fctelerde Fonksiyonel Durum Belirleme Testi (The Child Amputee Prosthetics Project - Functional Status Inventory, CAPP-FSI) ve Prostetik \u00dcst Ekstremite Fonksiyonel \u0130ndeks (Prosthetic Upper Extremity Functional Index, PUFI) ile yap\u0131ld\u0131.\\r\\nBulgular: Testlerin protezsiz halde ilk de\u011ferlendirmeleri ile 3 hafta ve 6 ay sonraki de\u011ferlendirmeleri aras\u0131nda; protezli halde 3 hafta ile 6 ay sonraki de\u011ferlendirmeleri aras\u0131nda anlaml\u0131 fark oldu\u011fu g\u00f6r\u00fcld\u00fc (p&lt;0.05). \u0130lk ve 3 haftal\u0131k d\u00f6nem ve 6 ay sonras\u0131 CAPP-FSI ve PUFI de\u011ferlendirme sonu\u00e7lar\u0131 gruplar aras\u0131 kar\u015f\u0131la\u015ft\u0131r\u0131ld\u0131\u011f\u0131nda konjenital grubun daha y\u00fcksek skorlar ald\u0131\u011f\u0131 belirlendi (p&lt;0.05).
