CLEVELAND, March 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SPR Therapeutics, a private medical device company focused on treating pain and improving the quality of life for patients suffering from acute or chronic pain, announced the peer-reviewed publication of final patient-reported outcomes from the largest prospective, multicenter trial completed to date of temporary peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) for chronic low back pain. Titled “Durable patient-reported outcomes following 60-day percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) of the medial branch nerves,” the study has been published in Interventional Pain Medicine, the official journal of the Spine Intervention Society (SIS) and includes data through the final 14-month follow-up (12 months after the two-month PNS treatment). The primary objective of this prospective multicenter clinical trial was to evaluate the responses of chronic low back pain patients receiving percutaneous PNS of the medial branch nerves. The durability of long-term effects following temporary PNS treatment are characterized in this report. Key findings of the clinical study included:
“Combined with the results from previous trials, the data now available from this study demonstrate the continued and consistent performance of temporary PNS, suggesting that it warrants consideration earlier in the treatment algorithm for chronic pain patients,” said Christopher Gilmore, MD, of the Carolinas Pain Institute, Investigator on this clinical trial and SPR Consultant. “The non-destructive nature of this approach when compared to ablation is a logical option to consider as, in my experience, most patients prefer the treatment option that offers the least disruption and the SPRINT System does not eliminate the potential for future treatment, if needed.” About the SPRINT PNS System The SPRINT PNS System is indicated for up to 60 days for: Symptomatic relief of chronic, intractable pain, post-surgical and post-traumatic acute pain; symptomatic relief of post-traumatic pain; symptomatic relief of post-operative pain. The SPRINT PNS System is not intended to be placed in the region innervated by the cranial and facial nerves. Physicians should use their best judgment when deciding when to use the SPRINT PNS System. For more information see the SPRINT PNS System IFU. Most common adverse events are skin irritation and erythema. Results may vary. Rx only. About SPR Therapeutics, Inc. SPR Contacts: Dave Folkens |
