ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGIES FOR PAIN MANAGEMENT IN AMPUTEES: A REVIEW
View through CrossRef
INTRODUCTION
The prevalence of limb amputation is increasing globally as a devastating experience that can physically and psychologically affect the lifestyle of a person. The residual limb pain and phantom limb pain are common disabling sequelae after amputation surgery. Assistive devices/technologies can be used to relieve pain in people with amputation. The present review aimed to introduce the existing assistive devices/technologies for pain management in people with amputation.
