Similar to our PNS technology, our Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) System utilizes a wireless RF signal to transmit to the receiver and is battery-free.
Our Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) System is a cutting-edge solution for managing chronic pain through the strategic placement of electrodes in the epidural space along the spinal column. SCS therapy has a long history of effectively alleviating chronic back and leg pain. What sets this SCS system apart is its innovative design, featuring remarkably compact implantable components that eliminate potential hazards associated with implantable batteries. Notably, this SCS System is recognized as Full Body MR conditional*, ensuring patient safety during magnetic resonance imaging procedures.
The core of SCS therapy involves the application of pulsed electrical current to create an energy field. This energy field interacts with nerves situated near the spinal column. Specifically, it intercepts pain signals originating from nerves in and around the spine, effectively blocking the transmission of these signals to the brain. This interception mechanism serves as a powerful pain management tool.
The Spinal Cord Stimulator (SCS) System offers an innovative approach to pain relief, harnessing the potential of advanced technology to enhance patients' quality of life. Prior to permanent implantation, a trial period is commonly conducted to assess the therapy's effectiveness in addressing chronic pain. It's important to note that SCS therapy is typically covered by most insurance carriers, providing accessible relief for those in need. For detailed information about the SCS and whether it's the right choice for your chronic pain management, consult with your healthcare provider.
