Early Postoperative Pain Course following Primary and Secondary Targeted Muscle Reinnervation: A Temporal Description of Pain Outcomes.
Background: Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is an effective surgical treatment of neuropathic pain for amputees. However, limited data exist regarding the early postoperative pain course for patients who undergo either primary (<14 days since amputation) or secondary (≥14 days) TMR. This study aims to outline the postoperative pain course for primary and secondary TMR during the first 6 postoperative months to aid in patient education and expectation management.
Methods: Patients were eligible if they underwent TMR surgery between 2017 and 2023. Prospectively collected patient-reported outcome measures of pain scores, Pain Interference, and Pain Intensity were analyzed. Multilevel mixed-effects models were utilized to visualize and compare pain courses between primary and secondary TMR patients.
Results: A total of 203 amputees were included, with 40.9% being primary and 59.1% being secondary TMR patients. Primary TMR patients reported significantly lower pain scores over the full 6-month postoperative trajectory (p < 0.001) compared with secondary TMR patients, with a difference of Δ -1.0 at the day of TMR (primary = 4.5, secondary = 5.5), and a difference of Δ -1.4 at the 6-month mark (primary = 3.6, secondary = 5.0). Primary TMR patients also reported significantly lower Pain Interference (p < 0.001) and Pain Intensity scores (p < 0.001) over the complete trajectory of their care.
Conclusion: Primary TMR patients report lower pain during the first 6 months postoperatively compared with secondary TMR patients. This may reflect how pre-existing neuropathic pain is more challenging to mitigate through peripheral nerve surgery. The current trends may assist in both understanding the postoperative pain course and managing patient expectations following TMR.
