– Holistic approach to measurement provides meaningful real-world impact evaluation –
CLEVELAND, Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A new real-world retrospective analysis evaluating quantifiable improvements in multiple domains of health in patients who received 60-day peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) for chronic shoulder pain at the end of treatment and up to six months from the start of treatment has been published in Pain Management. “Real-world evidence of durable multi-dimensional improvement after 60-day PNS treatment used for shoulder pain” analyzes four domains of health (pain, quality of life, physical function, and sleep) reflecting a more holistic approach evaluating the impact of pain treatment for patients in everyday use. Responders were defined as patients that reported at least 50 percent pain relief for the pain domain, and patients indicating improvement (Patient Global Impression of Change greater than or equal to one) were considered responders in the quality-of-life, physical function, and sleep measurements.
This real-world analysis included patients who were treated for chronic shoulder pain and opted-in to provide information to the device manufacturer. Patients received one or two leads to deliver PNS treatment, most commonly targeting the suprascapular nerve and the axillary nerve, either at the deltoid or the quadrangular space. The study’s lead author was Dr. Ali Valimahomed, MD, FAAPMR, of the Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute and SPR consultant.
“Chronic shoulder pain is common, but patients suffering with it often find limited treatment options,” said Maria Bennett, President, CEO, and Founder of SPR® Therapeutics. “Patients may view surgical interventions as a last resort, but less invasive treatments may not do enough to relieve pain. The SPRINT PNS System is used for 60 days and presents a clinically proven, non-opioid, and non-surgical option for patients.”
Among the patients included in the analysis, no serious adverse events were reported. The most common event was skin irritation, reported by 3.3 percent (n=25) of patients.
