Condition: Neuralgia · Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice
Moderate to severe neuropathic pain has a prevalence of 5% in the French population, involving the upper limb (UL) in 47%. Invasive neuromodulation, mainly spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is recommended as a third line treatment in refractory chronic neuropathic pain when optimized medical treatments are not sufficient to control pain. The implantation technique for BP roots PNS is based on the ultrasound-guided percutaneous inter-scalenic approach, routinely used for BP anesthetic blocks. As for SCS, BP PNS relies on chronic electrical stimulation of the nerve roots via chronically implanted devices (one lead connected to a subcutaneous generator). However efficacy of BP PNS has never been evaluated in controlled conditions. Our objectives are to assess, in controlled conditions, the effects of BP PNS in term of pain relief, quality of life improvement and safety.
