Brain zap & mirror trick tested to halt phantom pain before it takes hold
NCT ID NCT07139483
Summary
This study aims to prevent phantom limb pain from becoming a long-term, chronic problem for recent amputees. Researchers are testing if a combination of mirror therapy (where a mirror makes the missing limb appear intact) and gentle brain stimulation (tDCS) can stop the pain pathways from solidifying in the brain. The trial will involve 108 recent amputees in Israel to see if this early intervention is more effective than standard care or mirror therapy alone.
