Burst spinal cord stimulation for limb and back pain.

TLDR
In contrast to tonic stimulation, burst stimulation was able to provide pain relief without the generation of paresthesias, permitting them to use a double-blinded placebo controlled approach.

Conventional‐SCS vs. Burst‐SCS and the Behavioral Effect on Mechanical Hypersensitivity in a Rat Model of Chronic Neuropathic Pain: Effect of Amplitude

TL;DR: This work aimed to investigate the relation between amplitude (charge per second) and behavioral effects in a rat model of chronic neuropathic pain, for both Conventional Spinal Cord Stimulation (Con‐SCS) and biphasic Burst‐ SCS.

Spinal cord stimulation: Background and clinical application

TL;DR: This topical review presents a broad overview of spinal cord stimulation, including the historical and theoretical background, practical implantation technique, and clinical application, as well as some of the controversies surrounding the therapy.

A Prospective Study of Dorsal Root Ganglion Stimulation for Non-Operated Discogenic Low Back Pain.

TL;DR: The aim of this prospective study was to determine the effect of dorsal root ganglion (DRG) stimulation for a well‐selected group of patients with discogenic LBP with no history of previous back surgeries.

Effect of Spinal Cord Burst Stimulation vs Placebo Stimulation on Disability in Patients With Chronic Radicular Pain After Lumbar Spine Surgery

- 18 Oct 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the efficacy of spinal cord burst stimulation, which involves the placement of an implantable pulse generator connected to electrodes with leads that travel into the epidural space posterior to the spinal cord dorsal columns, in patients with chronic radiculopathy after lumbar spine disorders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Novel Intermittent Dosing Burst Paradigm in Spinal Cord Stimulation.

TL;DR: The goal of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of using extended stimulation‐off periods in patients with chronic intractable pain.

How do you feel? Interoception: the sense of the physiological condition of the body.

TL;DR: Functional anatomical work has detailed an afferent neural system in primates and in humans that represents all aspects of the physiological condition of the physical body that might provide a foundation for subjective feelings, emotion and self-awareness.

Standardized low-resolution brain electromagnetic tomography (sLORETA): technical details.

TL;DR: The technical details of the method are presented, allowing researchers to test, check, reproduce and validate the new method, and a solution reported here yields images of standardized current density with zero localization error.

Pain affect encoded in human anterior cingulate but not somatosensory cortex.

TL;DR: These findings provide direct experimental evidence in humans linking frontal-lobe limbic activity with pain affect, as originally suggested by early clinical lesion studies.

Functional imaging of brain responses to pain. A review and meta-analysis (2000).

TL;DR: Data suggest that hemodynamic responses to pain reflect simultaneously the sensory, cognitive and affective dimensions of pain, and that the same structure may both respond to pain and participate in pain control.
