NCT ID NCT06377969
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new type of spinal cord stimulation for people with long-lasting pelvic pain that hasn't improved with other treatments. The device automatically adjusts its energy based on real-time feedback to better target pain. Ten adults will be enrolled to see if it safely reduces pain and improves daily life.
