Exploration of High and Low Frequency Options for Subperception Spinal Cord Stimulation Using Neural Dosing Parameter Relationships: The HALO Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Subperception spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is described mostly utilizing waveforms that require high energy. However, the necessity of these waveforms for effective subperception has not been established. We aimed to explore whether effective subperception pain relief can be achieved using frequencies below 1 kHz.

Conditioning Electrical Stimulation for Patients with Moderate or Severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Double Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) can drastically impair one's ability to work and interferes with activities of daily living. We recently demonstrated that, in rodents, conditioning electrical stimulation (CES) delivered to the nerve 7 days prior to surgery imparts a conditioning lesion‐like effect by accelerating the rate of regeneration along ...

Expanding the Differential Diagnosis of Ultrasonographic Flexor Digitorum Profundus–Flexor Carpi Ulnaris Dissociation of Echogenicity: Muscular Dystrophies

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Dissociation of echogenicity of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) and flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) on neuromuscular ultrasound has been reported to be a useful sign to differentiate inclusion body myositis (IBM) from more common disease mimics, but it is not clear that this finding is pathognomonic of IBM. Our study aimed to
