Summary

Through this pilot prospective trial, we aim to obtain preliminary data investigating the effectiveness of perineural catheters and liposomal bupivacaine, both currently accepted as standard care at Maine Medical Center, for the management of post-limb amputation pain. We will use the data that we collect to inform the design of a larger, appropriately powered study.
