#WHAT IS A DORSAL COLUMN STIMULATOR TRIAL#

Paresthesia-free SCS and DRG stimulators are new advances in neurostimulation and offer a non-destructive, reversible alternative to treat difficult nerve problems that fail to respond to more conservative care. The DRG stimulator is well-suited for specific neuropathic conditions, which include CRPS, pelvic pain, groin neuralgia, extremity pain and other nerve pain involving isolated parts of the body. When Dorsal Root Ganglion therapy should be considered Learn about DRG stimulator technology and hear directly from patients in this video.

Today, we trial dorsal root ganglion stimulator systems as a first-line therapy for neuropathic pain conditions that affect a specific body part such as a hip, knee, foot, groin, or rib. And after more than 100 subsequent procedures, this type of experience has been replicated again and again. Our very first DRG stimulator patient reported immediate, almost miraculous improvement in her neuropathic leg pain. Traditional spinal cord stimulation does not always provide adequate relief in CRPS and a DRG stimulator is much more specific for the affected body part. We began to use DRG stimulation for some of the most challenging cases of complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), a condition that causes severe pain and hypersensitivity in an extremity. to be trained on the new dorsal root ganglion (DRG) stimulator technology. David Schultz became one of the first doctors in the U.S. However, spinal cord stimulation does not work for everyone, and in 2016, Dr. At Nura, we have been implanting SCS devices since 1990, and have helped countless chronic patients manage severe neuropathic pain.
