Brief summary (from the registry)
The aim of this observational, cross-sectional study is to investigate and compare the impact of chronic pain and amputation on patients' quality of life. By excluding individuals with conditions that might influence quality of life, the study seeks to provide insights into how these two conditions affect physical and emotional well-being. Statistical methods will be employed to analyze the data. The primary research questions are as follows: Is the quality of life of individuals with chronic pain lower than that of those with an amputation? Is the quality of life of individuals with chronic pain higher than that of those with an amputation? Is the quality of life of individuals with chronic pain similar to that of those with an amputation?
