This project aims to address phantom limb pain (PLP) in amputees by developing technological solutions that provide sensory input to the amputation site. It focuses on understanding the neuroplastic changes in the brain and how they can be modulated to alleviate pain and improve the quality of life for amputees.
Amputation of a limb may result from trauma or surgical intervention.
The amputation traumatically alters the body image, but often leaves sensations that refer to the missing body part.
In 50-80% amputees, neuropathic pain develops, also called phantom limb pain (PLP).
Both peripheral and central nervous system factors have been implicated as determinants of PLP.
Also, PLP may be triggered by physical (changes in the weather) and psychological factors (emotional stress).
