简要总结
Phantom limb pain is a chronic pain where the pain develops or perceived in a body part that has been amputated.Some studies shows that phantom limb pain occurs within first week of amputation and some studies shows that phantom limb pain occurs within first 3 months.
Several anesthestic techniques have been used for the amputation of deceased limb to prevent the incidence of phantom limb pain.Various studies suggest that with central and peripheral nerve blocks there is decrease in the central sensitization which led to the decrease in chronic pain by a reduction in repetitive stimulation of severed nerve roots .
This study will be done to compare the subarachnoid block and peripheral nerve blocks for lower limb amputation with an aim to evaluate the prevalence of phantom limb pain.
