Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of Responders as Determined by the Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) of Response Rates

    Cummulative distribution function (CDF) of response rates from 0% - 100% numerical rating score (NRS) to derive the entire range of possible responder definitions. This allows us to determine the range of success for all responder rates without the need to identify a certain cutoff (for example, use a 50% responder rate). A comparison between the two CDF's was performed by comparing the area under the curves since area between CDFs is equal to the mean difference in low back pain reduction for CR-SCS and HR-SCS. Hence, it can be used to estimate the true underlying difference in responder rates between CR-SCS and HR-SCS

Eligibility Criteria

Age22 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Have been diagnosed with chronic, intractable pain of the trunk (NRS ≥ 5) which has been refractory to conservative therapy for a minimum of 90 days.
  • Be an appropriate candidate for the surgical procedures required in this study based on the clinical judgment of the implanting physician
  • Be 22 years of age or older at the time of enrollment
  • Be willing and capable of giving informed consent
  • Be willing and able to comply with study-related requirements, procedures, and visits

You may not qualify if:

  • Have a medical condition or pain in other area(s), not intended to be treated with SCS, that could interfere with study procedures, accurate pain reporting, and/or confound evaluation of study endpoints, as determined by the Investigator
  • Have evidence of an active disruptive psychological or psychiatric disorder or other known condition significant enough to impact perception of pain, compliance of intervention and/or ability to evaluate treatment outcome, as determined by a psychologist
  • Have previous spinal cord stimulation trial or is already implanted with an active implantable device(s) (e.g. pacemaker, drug pump, implantable pulse generator)
  • Have a current systemic infection, or local infection in close proximity to anticipated surgical field
  • Pregnant or plan to get pregnant during the course of the study or not using adequate contraception.
  • Be participating in another clinical study that may influence the data collected for the study
