About this study

This pilot study investigates the effects of reducing pain medication including opioids and anticonvulsants, on spinal cord sensitivity during closed-loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Patients with Persistent Spinal Pain Syndrome Type 2 (FBSS/FNSS) will undergo a standard 21-day SCS trial with the Evoke closed-loop system, followed by permanent implantation if successful. Neurophysiological responses (activation plots, conduction velocity, chronaxie, rheobase) and patient-reported outcomes (VAS, activity, sleep, medication intake) will be collected during the trial and up to 6 months after implantation. The goal is to evaluate the relationship between medication tapering and spinal cord sensitivity
