Stimulation for Amputation Pain Management
(STAMP Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if electrical stimulation applied through the application of a wearable suit improves pain and function among adults with lower-limb amputation who report pain in two or more body regions. The main questions this study seeks to answer are:
* Does the suit provide a viable treatment option for pain management?
* Does the intensity of electrical stimulation matter? Researchers will compare two different intensities of electrical stimulation applied through application of a wearable suit to see the immediate, sustained and cumulative effects on pain and function among adults with lower-limb amputation.
Participants will:
* Fill out questionnaires online.
* Undergo two onsite clinical examinations.
* Complete 10 treatment sessions over 2-3 weeks.
