A novel current steering method for targeted spinal cord stimulation
Frontiers in Pain Research, 2023 Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) with leads embedded in the epidural space has become a recognized and effective clinical therapy for chronic pain relief. Leads with multiple electrodes placed close to the spinal cord allow targeted stimulation.

BJA Education, 2016 Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is treated with surgical or endovascular technique to restore blood flow as distally as possible. Neuromodulation in the form of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is offered to patients who have severe debilitating chronic pain and who are not amenable to conventional drug therapy or surgical bypass.

Pain Physician, 2002 Spinal cord stimulation is the most common mode of neuromodulation used in managing chronic low back pain. It is minimally invasive and reversible as opposed to nerve ablation. The basic scientific background of the initial spinal cord stimulation trials was based on the gate control theory of Melzack and Wall.

A wireless spinal stimulation system for ventral activation of the rat cervical spinal cord
Scientific Reports, 2021 Electrical stimulation of the cervical spinal cord is gaining traction as a therapy following spinal cord injury; however, it is difficult to target the cervical motor region in a rodent using a non-penetrating stimulus compared with direct placement of ...
