Social media analysis of pain outcomes following targeted muscle reinnervation

AIM: Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) was developed to improve myoelectric prosthesis control for amputees; however, it has become an area of interest in pain modulation. Evidences indicate that this procedure alleviates chronic pain in amputees. The primary objective of this study was to use social media analysis to understand patients' post-operative pain, satisfaction, and recovery time after TMR.
METHODS: Data were collected from one Facebook group via posts and comments referencing TMR. Posts published between January 1, 2020, and March 24, 2023 were analyzed. Data collected included pain prior to surgery, pain in immediate post-op period, and change in pain after surgery.
RESULTS: Forty-three individuals commented on their TMR experience. Among them, 31 had favorable surgical outcomes, 7 felt that the surgery worsened their pain or there was no significant change in their pain levels, and 5 commented during the initial post-operative period. Twenty-four patients described their pain in the immediate post-operative period and all patients said that the post-operative pain was worse than chronic pain. Among the 28 authors who commented on overall reduction in chronic pain, 24 reported that TMR reduced their pain, whereas 4 reported no change or worsened pain.
CONCLUSIONS: The number of patients (24) who reported improvement in chronic pain aligns with the results in current literature suggesting that TMR is a viable treatment option for pain management. With the current medical management of similar conditions, up to 80% of patients remain unsatisfied with pain management. This analysis supports the evidence that TMR is an effective treatment for patients experiencing post-amputation pain.
