Does anyone have or know where I can get a working definition of phantom
limb sensation? This is for a PT study that I am assisting and will need a
reference. I am not looking for someone to make on up, I can do that! I
need a referenced definition.
We are also working on a good definition for chronic that will describe
phantom pain and that will be easy for a lay amputee to comprehend. Have
one, it's just not very readable. Again, this will need referenced.
Last request is if anyone familiar with research studies might know of an
established tool to evaluate pain. We are using the Neuropathy Pain Scale
and would like to investigate others. John's Hopkins researchers mentioned
2 others they are currently using and we are hoping to get these soon. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
