Key result

Spinal cord stimulation altered short term heart rate variability in patients with chronic refractory angina, providing evidence for procedure-related cardiac sympathetic blockade.

Why the study?

Does spinal cord stimulation alter short term heart rate variability in patients with chronic refractory angina?

Population

16 consecutive patients with chronic refractory angina

Design

Cohort

Implication

Supports sympathetic blockade mechanism; observational data leaves open clinical benefit in refractory angina.

Structured PICO

Roger K. Moore (2004) studied chronic refractory angina (n=16). Spinal cord stimulation was evaluated on Short term heart rate variability (HRV). Spinal cord stimulation altered short term heart rate variability in patients with chronic refractory angina, providing evidence for procedure-related cardiac sympathetic blockade.
