Heart rate variability and phantom pain in male amputees: Application of linear and nonlinear methods.

- Abstract
The article presents a study that investigates the correlation between autonomic nervous system (ANS) and heart rate variability (HRV) of male amputees in Madrid, Spain. Researchers studied 35 male amputees who did not have phantom-limb pain (PLP) and they calculated the nonlinear and linear parameters of their HRV. Moreover, they found that majority of the male amputees experienced decline of HRV linear parameters while their nonlinear HRV are normal.
