Topic: amputees

Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a condition where pain is perceived as arising from a missing limb. Despite the high prevalence of PLP among individuals with amputation, the underlying mechanisms of this painful condition are poorly understood. The aim of the research presented here is to analyse high-resolution EEG data to differentiate oscillatory patterns in amputees who experience PLP from two control groups, amputees without PLP and individuals without amputation, and generate novel insights into the pathophysiology of PLP. This work expands on a previous investigation on the use of common spa
