Brief Summary:
The purpose of the clinical trial is to learn whether electrical nerve block via the Altius System is a safe and effective treatment for patients with post-amputation pain.
Detailed Description:
The Altius System is an implanted device designed to electrically block nerve signals and alleviate pain. Use of this device may be associated with providing an effective, mechanism-based yet non-destructive, treatment for managing intractable limb pain in amputees. In a given patient, the Altius System will be deemed effective if treatment results in 50% reduction of pain score for more than 50% of all pain episodes.
