Interactions Between the Phantom Limb Sensations, Prosthesis Use, and Rehabilitation as Seen by Amputees and Health Professionals

Abstract: There is evidence of interaction between phantom limb sensation (PLS) and upper limb prosthesis use, but the nature of this interaction remains unclear. The objective of this study is to investigate the view of prosthesis users and health professionals working with upper limb amputees regarding interaction between PLS, prosthesis use, and rehabilitation services.Twelve upper limb prosthesis users and four health professionals participated in a semistructured one-on-one interview, assessing the perceived intera… Show more

“…In particular, note that two of the participants, despite the painful sensation, reported that the coincidence of phantom limb movements with prosthesis movements helped them to better control the artificial hand. This confirmed previous findings available in the literature [44].…”

“…Investigators postulated increased phantom pain causing decreased prosthesis use is unlikely because no patient reported increased phantom pain with prosthetic use or cited pain as a reason for prosthetic discontinuance. Using qualitative and survey methodologies, Bouffard et al evaluated a sample of 12 persons with upperlimb amputation (85% transradial, 15% transhumeral) [36]. Their findings were not in agreement with those of Lotze et al regarding strictly beneficial effects of prosthetic use, specifically MYO use, relative to phantom limb pain.…”

“…Phantom limb pain is any sensation in the amputated part of the arm that is perceived as painful [36,54]. Phantom limb pain may begin immediately postamputation and is problematically high, with an estimated 50 percent prevalence in persons with upper-limb amputation [15].…”

“…The seven selected relevant studies are Kyberd and Hill ( 2007 ), Biddiss et al ( 2007 ), Jang et al ( 2011 ), Pylatiuk et al ( 2007 ), Østlie et al ( 2012 ), Bouffard et al ( 2012 ), and Lucchetti et al ( 2015 ). Special attention has been dedicated to the comparative analysis of user experience with myoelectric, electric, body-powered and passive upper limb prostheses, independently of the level of limb loss.…”
