Comparison of Paresthesia Mapping With Anatomic Placement in Burst Spinal Cord Stimulation: Long‐Term Results of the Prospective, Multicenter, Randomized, Double‐Blind, Crossover CRISP Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is an effective therapy for chronic intractable pain. Conventional SCS involves electrode placement based on intraoperative paresthesia mapping; however, newer paradigms like burst may allow for anatomic placement of leads.
