Chronic, Intractable Pain of the Trunk and/or Lower Limbs Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomized, Controlled, Single Blind, Prospective, Multicenter Study Evaluating Anatomic Versus Targeted Lead Placement for BurstDR Therapy During the Trial Evaluation Period. (DELIVERY)
Prospective, multi-center, randomized, single blind study
This clinical investigation compares success rates for anatomically placed leads to conventional, targeted lead placement for BurstDR™ during the trial evaluation period with the St Jude Medical™ Invisible Trial System. Subjects will be blinded to treatment group and randomized in a 1:1 ratio as follows: Group 1 (AB): anatomic lead placement followed by BurstDR™ stimulation during an initial trial evaluation period Group 2 (TB): targeted lead placement followed by BurstDR™ stimulation during an initial trial evaluation period If the subject qualifies for permanent system implant according to pre-defined criteria after the initial trial evaluation period, the subject will exit the clinical investigation and continue their treatment per the physician's standard of care. Subjects who do not qualify for permanent system implant according to pre-defined criteria after the initial trial evaluation period may participate in an extended trial evaluation period, per physician discretion, during which they will be programmed with tonic stimulation. Subjects continuing to an extended trial evaluation period will be followed through the completion of the extended trial period. At the end of the extended trial evaluation period, subjects will exit the clinical investigation. ;
