Peripheral Magnetic Stimulation (PMS) Effects on Somatosensory Perception in Patients with Upper Limb Amputation

PMS is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique used to treat chronic pain. Procedure starts with sensory mapping, localisation of the hotspot and detection of sensory threshold. Then two protocols of PMS are implemented: 5 blocks of PMS of varying frequency and 1 block of rPMS.

EEG is a technique commonly used for the registration of brain activity. The procedure is non-invasive, electrodes are placed on the scalp of the participants. The recording is made simultaneously with the PMS.
