Neuromodulation therapies, including spinal cord, dorsal root ganglion, and peripheral nerve stimulation, have emerged as powerful tools in the treatment of chronic pain syndromes such as intractable back pain, diabetic neuropathy, spinal radiculopathies, and complex regional pain syndrome. Since the first edition of this book was published over a decade ago, there has been an unprecedented surge in understanding neuromodulation and remarkable technological advancements in clinical applications. Spinal Cord Stimulation is a comprehensive guide designed to provide clinicians with the essential fundamentals required for the safe and effective implantation of neuromodulation devices. This multidisciplinary field involves the expertise of physicians from various disciplines, presenting a unique challenge for both surgical and non-surgical pain practitioners. This authoritative resource seamlessly integrates the basic multidisciplinary knowledge necessary for understanding spinal cord stimulation, dorsal root ganglion (DRG), and peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) with the latest implantation techniques for clinicians to utilize in their daily practice. Furthermore, it offers updated advice on appropriate medical decision-making, patient education, safe use of radiation, and managing adverse events. To address the growing demand for DRG stimulation and PNS, this edition includes dedicated chapters that delve into these topics in greater detail. By providing a comprehensive and up-to-date resource, Spinal Cord Stimulation aims to empower clinicians with the knowledge and skills necessary to effectively alleviate the suffering of patients experiencing chronic pain.
