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.
Electrical Nerve Stimulation
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.
High Frequency TENS Beneficial in Chronic Low Back Pain
Daily use of a high-frequency transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device may reduce pain and improve function in patients with chronic low back pain.
Reduced Paresthesia With DRG vs SCS Stimulation for Chronic Pain
Dorsal root ganglion stimulation for chronic pain may be associated with paresthesia with reduced coverage area, intensity, and frequency compared with tonic spinal cord stimulation.
External Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation May Alleviate Migraine Pain
A 1-hour treatment with external trigeminal nerve stimulation was found to alleviate pain in individuals with migraine without aura.
