A survey of phantom limb pain treatment methods currently used by Veterans Administration hospitals, medical schools, pain clinics, and pain specialists in the United States was carried out to determine which treatments are in use, their success rates as estimated by their users, and experience with unsuccessful treatment methods used by patients prior to referral to the respondent. The combined results of a recent literature search and this survey identified 68 treatment methods of which 50 were commented upon by the survey respondents as being in current use. Only a few treatment methods were even moderately successful when subjected to the criterion of low failure rates after one year. Non-surgical treatment methods were far more successful than surgical ones. A possible treatment regime based on optimizing moderately successful methods is proposed for further study.
对美国退伍军人管理局医院、医学院、疼痛诊所及疼痛专家目前使用的幻肢痛治疗方法进行了一项调查，以确定哪些治疗方法正在使用、使用者估计的成功率，以及患者在转诊给受访者之前使用不成功治疗方法的经历。最近文献检索和本次调查的综合结果确定了68种治疗方法，其中50种被调查受访者评论为目前正在使用。按照一年后低失败率的标准，只有少数治疗方法取得了一定程度的成功。非手术治疗方法比手术治疗方法成功得多。提出了一种基于优化中度成功方法的可能治疗方案以供进一步研究。
