Active substance
Spinal cord stimulation device
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to better pain relief for people with chronic pain who use spinal cord stimulators.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early feasibility study with only 15 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. It focuses on testing the method, not on proving pain relief.
