A single-center real-world review of 10 kHz high-frequency spinal cord stimulation outcomes for treatment of chronic pain.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To compare pragmatic real-world 10-kHz high-frequency spinal cord stimulation (HF-SCS) outcomes at a single academic center to the industry-sponsored SENZA-RCT and Stauss et al. study.

Methods

This single-center retrospective study included patients with refractory back or limb pain trialed and/or permanently implanted with the Nevro HF-SCS system from 2016 to 2021. Demographic and outcome data were obtained from the electronic medical record (EMR) and real-world global database maintained by Nevro Corp. Data obtained from the global database were confirmed using the EMR. Main outcome measures included positive responder status (≥50% patient-reported percentage pain reduction (PRPPR)), improvement in function, improvement in sleep, and reduction in pain medication
