Overview

Prospective study demonstrates improved running ability and pain reduction in patients receiving novel spinal cord stimulation, suggesting broader functional recovery beyond pain relief.

Key Points

  • Twelve of 15 patients achieved the ability to run following spinal cord stimulation therapy, while pain scores fell sharply from 10 to 2.72 on the numerical rating scale.
  • Prospective study evaluated 15 individuals with low back and leg pain from 2023 to 2024, assessing walking time across 210 cm along with sleep quality and overall satisfaction.
  • Highlights that fast-acting sub-perception and contour therapy relieve physical pain and restore running mobility, calling for athletic function assessments in future trials.
