Clinical Trial: Post-Amputation Stump Infection as a Predictor of Persistent Residual Limb Pain: A Prospective Cohort Study

U.S., Feb. 28 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07438795) titled 'Post-Amputation Stump Infection as a Predictor of Persistent Residual Limb Pain: A Prospective Cohort Study' on Feb. 22.

Brief Summary: Persistent residual limb pain is common after traumatic amputation and significantly impairs rehabilitation and prosthetic use. Postoperative stump infection may contribute to peripheral nerve sensitization, scar fibrosis, and long-term pain persistence. This prospective cohort study aims to determine whether early post-amputation stump infection independently predicts persistent clinically significant residual limb pain at 3 and 6 months after surgery.
