Abstract
|
|
|
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is currently approved for chronic pain of the trunk and limbs, intractable low back pain, leg pain, and pain from failed back surgery syndrome. Several ways of spinal cord stimulation were evaluated for chronic pain. There are conventional SCS and new SCS, including high?frequency burst spinal cord stimulation, high?frequency spinal cord stimulation, and dorsal root ganglion stimulation. SCS has shown its clinical efficacy in various randomized control trials for the approved indications. However, it is needed to evaluate clinical efficacy by large?scale randomized controlled trials. In the management of pain using SCS, it is required to manage the patients in the setting of multidisciplinary team approach in specialized pain centers.
