April 9, 2024 updated by: Boston Scientific Corporation

A Study to Evaluate the Effect of Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) on Clinical Outcomes and Pathology of Painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (pDPN)

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effects of stimulation parameters on clinical outcomes of Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) in the treatment of chronic, intractable limb pain resulting from painful Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy (pDPN).

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Pain Relief in Limb Pain
Time Frame: Up to 12 months follow up
Percent Pain Relief (PPR) in limb pain using a questionnaire where 100% is complete relief and 0% is no relief in pain compared with Baseline
Up to 12 months follow up

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Global Impression of Change
Time Frame: Up to 12 months follow up
Patient global impression of change (PGI-C) at 3-, 6- and 12-Month Assessment Visit where patients use a seven-point scale to assess how much their condition has improved or worsened relative to their baseline. Subjects will rate themselves as: very much improved; much improved; minimally improved; no change; minimally worse; much worse; or very much worse.
Up to 12 months follow up
