RESULTS
Characteristics of the Study Population
Of the 1538 persons identified for the survey, 182 were
ineligible due to age (n5; 2.2%), type or level of amputation
(n12; 6.6%), lack of an amputation (n29; 15.9%), nonEnglish speaking (n6; 3.3%), physically or mentally unable
to respond (n19; 10.4%), or death or institutionalization
(n111; 61.0%). Of those eligible for participation, 960
(71.3%) completed the interview, of which 21 were conducted
with a proxy respondent who resided in the home. One hundred
forty-seven persons could not be traced and/or contacted and
249 subjects refused to complete an interview. For the purpose
of our analysis, we excluded persons whose amputation was to
a finger or toe (n10) or with unknown etiology (n9) and
those in whom a proxy interview was conducted (n21) and
the interview was incomplete (n6). Data on the remaining
914 respondents form the basis of the present analysis.

pain than those who were not poor.
Among lower-limb amputees, there was no significant difference in the prevalence of back pain among those with an
above-knee versus below-knee amputation (21 test1.64,
P.200). Similar to the other pain items, the majority of those
surveyed (69.2%) characterized their back pain as somewhat
bothersome with nearly a quarter (23.6%) reporting extremely bothersome pain. In the multinomial model to evaluate bothersomeness by sociodemographic and amputationrelated characteristics, there were no significant differences
found. However, among those with depressed mood, the ad-

compared with those without depressed mood.
Prevalence, Intensity, and Bothersomeness of
Nonamputated Limb Pain
Half (49.7%) of all unilateral amputees reported experiencing pain in their nonamputated limb in the previous 4 weeks. In
the multivariate analysis, significant differences in the adjusted
odds of nonamputated limb pain were found for sex, time since
amputation, level of amputation, and number of comorbid
conditions. Men were 40% less likely than women to report
nonamputated limb pain (OR0.6; 95% CI, 0.5 0.9). Time
since amputation increased the odds of nonamputated limb pain
with persons 2 to 5 years postamputation 1.7 times more likely
to have nonamputated limb pain than those with less than 2
years living with the loss of a limb (95% CI, 1.0 2.8). Likewise, persons 5 to 9 years and 10 or more years living with the

loss of a limb were 2.7 (95% CI, 1.4 5.6) and 1.9 (95% CI,
1.13.2) times more likely than amputees less than 2 years
postamputation to report nonamputated limb pain. The adjusted
odds of nonamputated limb pain were 2.3 times higher for
lower-limb amputees than upper-limb amputees (95% CI, 1.3
3.9). The number of comorbid conditions also increased the adjusted odds of nonamputated limb pain, reaching statistical significance at 2 or more conditions (OR2.7; 95% CI, 1.0 4.0).
The mean intensity score for nonamputated limb pain was
5.12.4. The majority of ratings fell into the mild category
