Significance of the Spinal Cord Position in Spinal Cord Stimulation

1995
The effects of the antero-posterior and medio-lateral positions of the spinal cord in the dural sac on the perception threshold and paresthesia coverage in spinal cord stimulation were analyzed. The distributions of the dorsal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) layer thickness, measured from transverse MR scans of normal subjects at various spinal levels, were ...

Spinal Cord Stimulation for Spasticity

1987
After the dramatic improvement of multiple sclerosis patients reported by Cook and Weinstein (1973), spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for the relief of spasticity and motor dyskinesias has been applied to a large number of patients.

Spinal Cord Stimulation [PDF]

open access: possible, 2014
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is the most commonly used invasive neuromodulation technique for chronic pain. It is a spin-off of the gate control theory, and is a nondestructive and reversible intervention, the beneficial effects of which may persist for many years. The main indications are neuropathic pain, as seen in patients with failed back surgery

Techniques in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Management, 2000
Spinal cord stimulation has been used for over 30 years to treat different pain conditions, and has been proved effective in neuropathic or sympathetically mediated pain states. The postulated mechanism of action is selective activation of the large-diameter afferent fibers through electrical stimulation.
