Could a nerve zap ease fracture pain without pills?
NCT ID NCT07079865
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a device that stimulates nerves for 60 days to see if it can reduce pain and improve quality of life in women who recently had a spinal compression fracture. Fifteen women with fractures less than 3 months old will receive the treatment and report their pain and function over 6 months. The goal is to find a drug-free way to help them recover.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
SPRINT PNS modulation system (a nerve stimulation device)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a non-drug option for managing pain and improving daily function after a spinal fracture.
What could go wrong
This is a very small early study (15 people) with no comparison group, so results may not apply broadly. The device may not reduce pain for everyone.
