Peri‐operative pain management in major lower extremity amputation in vascular Surgery: a <scp>UK</scp> anaesthetic and vascular surgery Delphi consensus study*
This study provides the first procedure-specific consensus, delineating agreed principles and preferred pharmacological and locoregional analgesic approaches to peri-operative pain management in patients undergoing major lower extremity amputations. The areas of non-consensus expose key uncertainties that may inform future research, service organisation and guideline development agendas.
