Chronic Nerve Pain in specific Area

“If you are 18 or older and suffer from Chronic Focal Neuropathic Pain, you may be eligible to participate in a research study.”

A clinical trial for individuals experiencing significant pain due to Chronic Focal Neuropathic Pain

Neuroscience Research Center is conducting a research study on chronic focal neuropathic pain using the Evoke® SmartSCSTM Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) system.

Evoke® SmartSCSTM is a new FDA-approved medical device that can potentially treat your chronic pain condition.
The Evoke® SmartSCSTM system constantly listens to your body’s needs and automatically adjusts therapy 4+ million times per day.

Have their treatment settings reviewed
Provide feedback on symptom changes
