What Causes Post-Amputation Pain?

Up to 80% of patients may experience post-amputation pain, like phantom limb pain or residual limb pain.

  1. Post-amputation pain occurs when an amputation damages nerve endings in your leg.
  2. Damaged nerves become hyperactive and send more pain signals to your brain, causing frequent and severe pain.

How does Altius Work?

Altius® is implanted by your doctor, typically in one, same-day procedure.

  1. When activated, the Altius device delivers electrical stimulation directly to the damaged nerves.
  2. This helps prevent pain signals from reaching your brain, resulting in rapid and lasting pain relief.

Indications for Use: The Altius® Direct Electrical Nerve Stimulation System is indicated as an aid in the management of chronic intractable phantom and residual lower limb post-amputation pain in adult amputees.

Contraindications: The Altius system is contraindicated for patients who are: Unable to operate the system or Unsuitable for the Altius implant surgery.

Warnings/Precautions: Use as indicated and instructed. Diathermy should not be used on patients with the Altius System, or any of its components, either as a treatment for a medical condition or as part of a surgical procedure. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is a field of energy generated by equipment found in the home, work, medical, or public environments that is strong enough to interfere with Altius system function. The electrical pulses from the Altius system may interact with the sensing operation from a cardiac device and could result in an inappropriate response of the cardiac device; physicians involved should discuss the possible interactions between the devices before surgery. Safety and Effectiveness of Altius System for pediatric use and for pregnant patients has not been established. Surgical complications and adverse events may be more frequent and severe in diabetic patients. Safety of MRI/NMRI with an implanted Altius system has not been evaluated. Patients implanted with the Altius System, or any of its components, should not be subject to MRI/NMRI. See Instructions for Use for detailed information regarding the procedure(s), indications, contraindications, warnings, precautions, and potential adverse events.

Although FDA has determined that the probable benefits outweigh the probable risks, there remains some uncertainty regarding the manufacturer’s human factors engineering (HFE) and usability engineering (UE) analysis and validation testing. As a condition of approval, FDA is requiring the manufacturer to provide an HFE/UE analysis and validation testing and recommending that this analysis and testing is designed using the FDA’s 2016 guidance document “Applying Human Factors and Usability Engineering to Medical Devices” (https://www.fda.gov/media/80481/download).
