Cranial Microcurrent Stimulation May Be Safe Adjunctive Analgesic for Tension-Type Headache
The researchers’ goal was to investigate the therapeutic effect of cranial microcurrent stimulation in patients with chronic tension-type headaches.
Electrical Nerve Stimulation
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation a Potentially Viable Treatment Option for Facial Trigeminal Neuropathic Pain
This researchers studied whether implantable peripheral nerve stimulation is a viable option for treating intractable trigeminal neuropathic pain.
Peripheral Nerve Stimulation Reduced Pain, Opioid Use After Ambulatory Orthopedic Surgery
Prior to surgery, patients had a percutaneous lead inserted in the brachial plexus, femoral, or sciatic nerve using ultrasound guidance.
Study Will Compare Postoperative Peripheral Nerve Stimulation vs Opioid Analgesia
Investigators are seeking to determine the feasibility of percutaneous nerve stimulation to reduce postoperative opioid consumption.
Reviewing Noninvasive Vagus Nerve Stimulation for Migraine, Cluster Headache
A substantial percentage of patients with primary headache disorders are unresponsive to standard pharmacologic therapies, with pain-free response rates of 45% at 15 minutes and 30% at 2 hours, following the use of rescue medications.1 Such findings, along with the range of side effects associated with these agents, highlight the need for novel treatment options…
Remote Electrical Neuromodulation Noninferior to Usual Care for Acute Migraine
Remote electrical neuromodulation may represent a safe and effective option for the acute treatment of migraine.
Noninvasive Vagus Nerve Stimulation Provides Rapid Relief From Episodic Cluster Headache
Noninvasive vagus nerve stimulation may represent an effective acute intervention for episodic, but not chronic, cluster headache.
Non-Invasive Device Stimulating Occipital and Trigeminal Nerves Effectively Treats Acute Migraine
Combined stimulation of the occipital and trigeminal nerves using a non-invasive stimulation device was found to be effective for the acute treatment of migraine
New SCS System That Adjusts to Spinal Cord Responses Effectively Treats Chronic Pain
There were 2 studies examining the efficacy of the Evoke system in patients with chronic pain which indicated significant pain relief.
Novel vs Traditional Spinal Cord Stimulation Therapies for Chronic Low Back Pain
The use of novel waveforms, frequencies, and stimulation modes in spinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapies may be more effective at relieving chronic low back pain and/or leg pain compared with traditional tonic low-frequency SCS.
