Objective: To synthesise evidence on the experiences of individuals with vascular pathology undergoing major lower limb amputation.
Materials and Methods: A systematic literature review (SLR) of qualitatively focussed evidence. Qualitative, descriptive, exploratory case studies and surveys in English, Spanish, or Portuguese from 1983 to 2022 were included, reporting experiences.
Results: Utilising Joanna Briggs Institute instruments and assumptions, 10 articles, 213 findings, 15 categories, and five synthesised discoveries resulted in an awareness of the need for amputation, change and difference, the meaning of mobility, facilitating conditions, and the level of preparation and knowledge of professionals.
Conclusion: The disease narrative prepares individuals for amputation. The decision emerges as a last resort in the experience of pain and suffering. A complex event of constant interactions between chronic illness, anticipation of amputation, changes, strategies, and relationships beyond the fear of complications, giving rise to conflicting feelings and doubts about the future.
