Summary

25 participants with back pain and no previous spinal surgery will be enrolled from a single NHS site in England.

Participants will have already discussed spinal cord stimulation (SCS) pain management with their consultant before being invited to participate. Participants will attend for 10 visits over a period of 66 months. At visit one, study suitability screening and informed consent will be conducted. Suitable participants will be booked to have SCS trial leads implanted and an external programmable High Frequency battery trial box as a day case (Visit 2). Participants will be contacted over the next 21 days to assess how the trial is progressing and to book a follow up appointment in clinic to remove the trial leads (Visit 3) where a treatment decision will be made. If a participant is determined as having had a successful trial they will be listed and implanted with a full HF10 SCS implant (Visit 4). The participants who proceed to a full HF10 SCS implant will be reviewed in the Clinic at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 60 months post procedure. Their participation in this study will be no longer than 66 months. A successful trial is defined as a reduction in pain by 30% on a Visual Analogue Scale. Participants who do not obtain 30% reduction in 21 days is classed as a failed trial and once the leads are removed will be reviewed in clinic by the investigator for an alternative treatment plan (Visit 4). If a participant is determined a failed trial of HF10, they will remain in the study with their consent for the full follow up schedule. The follow-up for the failed trial cohort can be conducted via telephone to reduce the burden on this trial group.
