About this study

Official title: An Evaluation Study of Patient Experience Comparing Tonic Vs. Burst Spinal Cord Stimulation For Chronic Pain

Researchers are evaluating if subjects who have already experienced tonic spinal cord stimulation would have a better pain relief status with burst spinal cord stimulation.

Read the detailed description

The study is a controlled trial with subjects that have an already-implanted SCS device (Eon Mini™) and are not satisfied with their pain relief status. As part of medical standard of care, patients with already-implanted Eon family tonic implantable pulse generators (IPGs) have the opportunity to experience burst stimulation for 30-Day Trial FDA approved. The aim of the study record patients experience during the 30-Day Trial using standard questionnaires.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain intensity

    Change in Pain scores using Numeric Rating Scale (1-10)

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

  2. Pain quality, intensity and localization

    Change in pain perception using Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire-2

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

  3. Pain perception

    Change in pain perception using the Pain Catastrophizing Scale self-reported survey

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Depression

    Change in depression scores using Beck Depression Inventory-II self reported survey

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

  2. Functioning

    Change in patient's functioning using Oswestry Disability Index self-reported survey

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

  3. Participant self-evaluation of Quality of Life

    Change in quality of life scores using self-reported questionnaire Short-From-36 Health Survey

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

  4. Participant's impression of Quality of Life

    Change in quality of life using Patient Global Impression of Change self-reported survey on activity limitations, symptoms and emotions

    Measured: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Spinal Cord Stimulator in people with Chronic Pain, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jan 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Only 2 patients enrolled). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Pain intensity (time frame: Participants will be followed at baseline, before and after the 2-3 weeks burst reprograming trial, and 3-8 months after burst trial ends). The study lists 3 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 18 Jan 2022; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 3 Nov 2026.
