About this study

The purpose of this study is to assess feasibility of using wearable sensors to capture objective assessments of patient's activity and sleep quality during the spinal cord stimulation (SCS) treatment continuum.

Read the detailed description

Eligible patients will undergo standard clinical care using BurstDR SCS and will be asked to wear a wrist worn accelerometer for a baseline period, during SCS trial and for 3 months after activation of the SCS stimulation.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Accelerometry in people with Chronic Pain, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 3 sites in 2 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 16 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Belgium, Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 29 Aug 2019). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in Activity Levels (time frame: between baseline and the end of spinal cord stimulation trial period (average of 1 month)). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Aug 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
