VELOCITY: A Study to Characterize Real-World Outcomes of Spinal Cord Stimulation

December 10, 2020 updated by: Boston Scientific Corporation

A Multi-Center Controlled Study to Characterize the Real-world Outcomes of High Rate Spinal Cord Stimulation Therapy Using Boston Scientific (BSC) PRECISION Spinal Cord Stimulator System

The primary objective of this study is to characterize the real-world outcomes of spinal cord stimulation (SCS) therapy as an aid in the management of chronic intractable pain of the trunk, including unilateral or bilateral pain associated with the following: failed back surgery syndrome, intractable low back pain using the Boston Scientific (BSC) PRECISION Spinal Cord Stimulator System with MultiWave Technology.
