NCT ID NCT04909138
First seen Dec 24, 2025 · Last updated Apr 29, 2026 · Updated 13 times
Summary
This study looks at whether turning a nerve stimulator on and off in short bursts can work as well as continuous stimulation for people with long-term pain from conditions like CRPS, radiculopathy, or peripheral neuropathy. About 30 adults who already have a spinal nerve stimulator and get at least 50% pain relief will try two different on/off patterns over 25 weeks. The goal is to see if intermittent dosing can maintain pain relief and improve satisfaction.
