Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: ECAP-Controlled, Closed-Loop SCS
Spinal cord stimulation that measures and records evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) and automatically adjusts the stimulation current to maintain a consistent ECAP amplitude.
A spinal cord stimulation (SCS) system that measures and records evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs) and automatically adjusts the stimulation current to maintain a consistent ECAP amplitude.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Evoked Compound Action Potentials (ECAPs) as measured by the Evoke SCS System
Time Frame: through 6-months post-implant
physiological parameter to be measured = Evoked Compound Action Potentials (ECAPs); measurement tool = Evoke SCS System
through 6-months post-implant

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) Pain
Time Frame: through 6-months post-implant
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to rate pain intensity (0mm [no pain] to 100mm [worst pain imaginable])
through 6-months post-implant
