Abstract

Various phantom limb phenomena were researched using 32 unilaterally amputated upper extremity patients, some of whom experienced phantom limb pain and some of whom did not. In general, individuals who suffered from phantom limb had a greater incidence of non-full phantom limb sensations than amputees who did not experience any from their amputations. Exteroceptive cutaneous sensations were reported less frequently than kinesthetic and kinetic phantom limb experiences, which were reported more frequently. Phantom limb and stump were found to have a substantial and positive link with one another. Patients typically attributed sensory rather than affective characteristics to their phantom limb, however for stump; no differences were identified between qualities.

Keywords: Phantom Limb Pain, patient, stump.
