NCT01126983

Brief Summary

To assess lead migration rates using different methods of securing leads during Spinal Cord Stimulation trial period. Spinal cord stimulation has two phases. Trial, which is a precursor for a permanent implantation. Trial lasts less than a week, which gives the patient an opportunity to assess the effectiveness of the treatment.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Migration of leads with different methods of securing leads during spinal cord stimulation trial period.

    3-5 days

Study Arms (1)

Non-Suture

EXPERIMENTAL

No suture will be used to secure the leads. Benzoin and Steri-Strips will be used like in the other two arms.

Device: SutureDevice: Lead Anchor

Interventions

SutureDEVICE

Suture (2.0 Mono-filament nylon suture) will be used to secure the leads to the skin. Benzoin and Steri-strips will also be used.

Also known as: 2.0 Mono-filament nylon suture
Non-Suture

Suture (2.0 Mono-filament Nylon suture) will be applied over the lead anchor(Lead Anchor St.Jude Medical Co, model-long, No# 1106) to the skin. Benzion and Steri-strips will also be used.

Also known as: 2.0 Mono-filament Nylon suture & Lead Anchor (St.Jude Medical Co) model-long, No# 1106
Non-Suture

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years - 95 Years
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • All the patients undergoing Spinal Cord Stimulation (age \> 18yrs)

You may not qualify if:

  • patients whose trial period lasts less than 3 days or more than 5 days will be excluded from the study.
  • patients that may require revision of leads or any complication that requires to take the leads out before the end of trial period.
