Summary

To evaluate the effectiveness of Burst DR stimulation as a treatment for persistent abdominal refractory visceral pain secondary to chronic pancreatitis. Abdominal pain is a main symptom in patients with chronic pancreatitis. Patients have a background constant pain with acute episodes needing admissions. Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is a recognised treatment for neuropathic pain. This involves placing an electric wire in the spine and the use of electricity to manage the pain. This is a pacemaker for controlling pain. Burst DR stimulation delivers a wave form which mimics the way nerves conduct electrical signals, there are short bursts or spikes of stimulation followed by short periods of rest. The key aims and objectives of this study are to evaluate the efficacy of Burst DR SCS as a treatment for persistent pain secondary to chronic pancreatitis
