Brief summary (from the registry)
Most trauma survivors in low-income countries develop post-injury chronic pain syndromes. Normally traumatic amputees have to wait 4-6 months for definitive prosthesis fitting. The actual study aims at reducing post-injury chronic pain and improving function by immediate temporary prosthesis fitting after surgery.
