NCT05068011

Brief Summary

Evaluation of the effectiveness of differential target multiplexed spinal cord stimulation for treatment of chronic back and leg pain. Additionally, a subgroup analysis will be performed to evaluate potential differences between paddle/surgical leads versus percutaneous leads.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall pain intensity with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Overall pain, defined as a combination of back and leg pain, but not pain from other body parts, measured with the VAS (100mm)

    The change between the baseline screening and the evaluation 1 month after DTM stimulation, 6 months and 12 months

Secondary Outcomes (20)

  • Back pain intensity with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    The change between the baseline screening and the evaluation 1 month after DTM stimulation, 6 months and 12 months

  • Leg pain intensity with Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    The change between the baseline screening and the evaluation 1 month after DTM stimulation, 6 months and 12 months

  • Pain medication use

    The change between the baseline screening and the evaluation 1 month after DTM stimulation, 6 months and 12 months

  • Functional disability

    The change between the baseline screening and the evaluation 1 month after DTM stimulation, 6 months and 12 months

  • Health related quality of life

    The change between the baseline screening and the evaluation 1 month after DTM stimulation, 6 months and 12 months

  • +15 more secondary outcomes

Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Patients with chronic back and leg pain due to Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS)/Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome type 2 (PSPS-T2), who will receive treatment with differential target multiplexed (DTM) SCS.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with severe chronic pain (\> 5 on numeric rating scale, NRS) for at least 6 months due to FBSS (PSPS T2) and suitable for treatment with DTM SCS according to the treating physician
  • Age \> 18 years
  • Patient has been informed of the study procedures and has given written informed consent
  • Patient willing to comply with study protocol including attending the study visits

You may not qualify if:

  • Expected inability of the patient to receive or properly operate the spinal cord stimulation system
  • History of coagulation disorder, lupus erythematosus, diabetic neuropathy, rheumatoid arthritis, or morbus Bechterew
  • Active malignancy
  • Addiction to drugs, alcohol (\>5 units per day) and/or medication
  • Evidence of an active disruptive psychiatric disorder or other known condition that may impact perception of pain, compliance to the intervention, and/or ability to evaluate treatment outcome as determined by investigator
  • Immune deficiency (e.g. HIV positive, immunosuppressive treatment)
  • Life expectancy \< 1 year
  • Local infection or any other skin disorder at site of incision
  • Pregnancy
  • Other implanted active medical device
