Author: R. Rapcan, J. Mlaka, M. Venglarcik, V. Vinklerova, M. Gajdos, R. Illes | ||
Abstract: AIM: Our clinical experience with high – frequency SCS for FBSS in patients with predominant low back pain is presented. The mean VAS score before implantation (8.7) compared to VAS 12 months after implantation (4.0) was significantly lower (CI95[3.9–5.4], p < 0.001). There was a significant improvement in performance status when comparing PS before implantation (3.0) and 12 months after implantation (1.8) (CI95[0.9–1.6], p < 0.001). The mean patient satisfaction scores (PSS) did not differ throughout the whole one year follow-up period. |
