Ultrasound-Guided Platelet-Rich Plasma Versus Local Anesthetic Injection for Chronic Neuroma Pain After Combat-Related Amputation (PRP-NEUROMA)

Ultrasound-Guided Platelet-Rich Plasma Versus Local Anesthetic Injection for Chronic Neuroma Pain After Combat-Related Amputation: A Prospective Multicenter Controlled Study

Patients with combat-related amputations frequently experience chronic neuroma pain that may interfere with rehabilitation, prosthesis use, mobility, sleep, and quality of life. Current treatment approaches often provide only temporary pain relief.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a potential regenerative treatment option because of its possible effects on tissue healing, neuroinflammation, and peripheral nerve irritation. However, its role in the treatment of chronic neuroma pain after amputation remains unclear.

This prospective multicenter controlled study aims to compare ultrasound-guided PRP injection around the neuroma with ultrasound-guided local anesthetic injection in patients with chronic neuroma pain after combat-related amputation.

Participants will undergo one of the two injection treatments and will be followed over time to evaluate changes in pain intensity, neuropathic pain symptoms, phantom limb pain, prosthesis tolerance, and functional outcomes.

The goal of the study is to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and potential clinical effectiveness of PRP injection for chronic neuroma pain following combat-related amputation.

Detaillierte Beschreibung

Chronic neuroma pain is a frequent and disabling complication following combat-related limb trauma and amputation. Persistent neuroma pain may contribute to residual limb pain, phantom limb pain, impaired prosthesis tolerance, sleep disturbance, reduced mobility, and decreased quality of life. Conventional treatment strategies, including local anesthetic injections, often provide only temporary pain relief and limited long-term functional improvement.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has emerged as a potential regenerative treatment option because of its possible effects on tissue repair, neuroinflammation, peripheral sensitization, and scar-related nerve irritation. PRP contains multiple growth factors and bioactive molecules that may support peripheral nerve healing and modulation of chronic neuropathic pain mechanisms. However, evidence regarding PRP treatment for chronic neuroma pain after combat-related amputation remains limited.

This prospective multicenter controlled study is designed to compare ultrasound-guided PRP injection around the neuroma with ultrasound-guided local anesthetic injection in patients with chronic neuroma pain after combat-related amputation.

Patients with ultrasound-confirmed painful neuromas will undergo ultrasound-guided perineuroma injection using either PRP or local anesthetic according to the study protocol. All procedures will be performed under sterile conditions by clinicians experienced in ultrasound-guided pain interventions.

Clinical follow-up will include assessment of neuroma pain intensity, neuropathic pain characteristics, phantom limb pain, residual limb pain, prosthesis tolerance, analgesic consumption, patient-reported improvement, and adverse events.

The study aims to evaluate the safety, feasibility, and potential clinical effectiveness of PRP injection as a regenerative treatment strategy for chronic neuroma pain following combat-related amputation.

Was misst die Studie?

Primäre Ergebnismessungen

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Change in Chronic Neuroma Pain Intensity Assessed Using the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)
Zeitfenster: Baseline to 12 weeks after injection

Chronic neuroma pain intensity will be assessed using the 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Participants will rate their average neuroma-related pain during the previous 7 days on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "worst imaginable pain." Change from baseline will be analyzed.

Scale Information:

Numeric Rating Scale (NRS)

Minimum Value:

0

Maximum Value:

10 Interpretation: Higher scores indicate greater neuroma pain intensity and worse clinical outcomes.
Baseline to 12 weeks after injection

Ergebnis Maßnahme
Maßnahmenbeschreibung
Zeitfenster
Neuropathic Pain Characteristics Assessed Using the painDETECT Questionnaire (PD-Q)
Zeitfenster: Baseline to 12 and 24 weeks

Neuropathic pain characteristics will be assessed using the painDETECT Questionnaire (PD-Q), a validated patient-reported screening tool designed to identify neuropathic pain features. The questionnaire evaluates pain quality, sensory symptoms, pain pattern, and radiation of pain. Total scores range from -1 to 38, with higher scores indicating a greater likelihood and severity of neuropathic pain.

Scale Information:

painDETECT Questionnaire (PD-Q)

Minimum Value:

1

Maximum Value:

38

Interpretation:

Higher scores indicate more pronounced neuropathic pain characteristics and a greater likelihood of neuropathic pain.

Clinical Interpretation:

≤12 = Neuropathic pain unlikely 13-18 = Ambiguous result

≥19 = Neuropathic pain likely
Baseline to 12 and 24 weeks
Residual Limb Pain Intensity
Zeitfenster: Baseline to 12 and 24 weeks

Residual limb pain intensity will be assessed using the 11-point Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Participants will rate their average residual limb pain during the previous 7 days on a scale from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates "no pain" and 10 indicates "worst imaginable pain."

Scale Information:

Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) Minimum Value: 0 Maximum Value: 10 Interpretation: Higher scores indicate greater residual limb pain intensity and worse clinical outcomes.
Baseline to 12 and 24 weeks
Prosthesis Tolerance Assessed Using Average Daily Prosthesis Wearing Time
Zeitfenster: Baseline to 12 and 24 weeks
