Epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation for Hypertension in Patients With Neuropathic Pain (ESCAPE)
Study Overview
Status
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
The broad research goal of this study is to examine the extent to which arterial blood pressure (BP) and blood markers related to hypertension and kidney function are reduced in a prospective cohort of patients undergoing implantation of an epidural spinal cord stimulator (SCS) for the purpose of managing chronic pain in the lower back and/or limbs.
Specific aims:
- Examine the extent to which BP (primary variable), norepinephrine (marker of sympathetic nerve activity in the blood), and a vascular ultrasound scan are improved following the implant of a SCS device among patients with chronic pain and hypertension.
- Examine the extent to which markers of kidney function in the blood [serum creatinine, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and blood urea nitrogen (BUN)] are reduced following the implant of a SCS device among patients with chronic pain and hypertension.
- Determine the extent to which BP predicts reductions in pain following the implant of a SCS device.

A battery of questionnaires is intended to understand key aspects of pain, mood, and function as quickly and efficiently as possible. The focus of these measures is on obtaining an accurate assessment of pain, while also asking about physical function, anxiety, and other associated somatic disturbances. These questionnaires will be taken prior to SCS implant (Baseline) and after SCS implant (1 week post-op, 4 weeks post-op, and 8 weeks post-op ) to assess and compare. Neuropathic Pain Descriptors: The Pain DETECT is a 9-item measure of sensory descriptors and spatial and temporal characteristics that has demonstrated utility in identifying central neuropathic pain. |
