Dolor Neuropático Crónico Grave: Un Paquete de Tratamiento, Utilizando Estimulación de la Médula Espinal y Tratamiento Multidisciplinario, para Reducir el Dolor y Mejorar la Función Física. (SCS-R)

4 de mayo de 2026 actualizado por: Lars-Petter Granan, Oslo University Hospital

Optimización del Tratamiento para el Dolor Neuropático Crónico: Un Diseño Experimental de Caso Único Replicado Evaluando un Paquete de Tratamiento que Consiste en Rehabilitación Multidisciplinaria y Estimulación de la Médula Espinal (SCS-R)

Las personas con daño nervioso pueden desarrollar dolor neuropático. El dolor a veces puede ser intenso e impredecible, causando sensaciones extrañas o alarmantes, por ejemplo, sensaciones de descarga eléctrica o relámpago en el área servida por el nervio dañado.

Examinaremos un tratamiento para el dolor neuropático en las piernas causado por daño nervioso, que puede ocurrir después de una hernia discal o una fractura ósea, con o sin cirugía.

Investigaciones previas sugieren que la estimulación de la médula espinal puede aliviar el dolor neuropático en las piernas después de una cirugía o lesión, pero su efectividad aún se debate. Otros estudios muestran que el tratamiento multidisciplinario ayuda a las personas con dolor crónico a mejorar su calidad de vida y a afrontar mejor la vida. Las guías nacionales e internacionales recomiendan este tipo de atención multidisciplinaria para el dolor crónico.

Nadie ha publicado aún investigaciones sobre la estimulación de la médula espinal combinada con tratamiento multidisciplinario como una intervención integral. Por lo tanto, queremos averiguar si este enfoque combinado puede reducir el dolor neuropático en las piernas y mejorar el funcionamiento físico.

Descripción general del estudio

Descripción detallada

Single-case experimental design (SCED) with repeated measurements structured into phases is the method of this study.

Phase A1 is the pre-implantation baseline, Phase A2 is waiting time from implantation to start of the intervention (SCS+rehabilitation). Length of A2 is randomized (2-4 weeks).

Phase B is the active SCS+rehabilitation intervention and lasts for 12 weeks (for analysis split into an early B1 (week 1-5) and a later B2 period (week 8-12), and FU is the 5 week follow-up approximately 6 months after implantation.

Outcomes are measured repeatedly within these phases, allowing within-patient phase contrasts.

In general, baseline (A1) is compared with the intervention periods (B1 and B2) and with follow-up (FU). The main pre-specified contrasts for the primary outcomes are:

  1. For leg pain intensity A1 vs B1 is the primary comparison and A1 vs B2 is secondary, with A1 vs FU and B2 vs FU reported descriptively.
  2. For physical function (PROMIS-29), A1 vs B2 is the primary comparison as onset of rehabilitation effect is expected to be delayed. A1 vs B1 is exploratory, with A1 vs FU and B2 vs FU reported descriptively.

Other repeated-measures outcomes (PROMIS-29 domains and additional NRS/physical activity measures) follow the same structure, with A1 vs B2 generally defined as secondary and A1 vs FU descriptive as shown in the statistical tables
