The Gateway to Peripheral Nerve Stimulation

This episode discussed the ASPN 60 day PNS guidelines with our guests Dr. Scott Pritzlaff and Dr. Samir Seth. Drs Deer, Pritzlaff and Sheth are paid consultants of SPR.  The SPRINT PNS System is indicated for up to 60 days for: (i) Symptomatic relief of chronic, intractable pain, post-surgical and post-traumatic acute pain; (ii) Symptomatic relief of post-traumatic pain; and (iii) Symptomatic relief of post-operative pain. The SPRINT PNS System is not intended to be placed in the region innervated by the cranial and facial nerves. Physicians should use their best judgment when deciding when to use the SPRINT PNS System. For more information see the SPRINT PNS System IFU. Most common adverse events are skin irritation and erythema. Results may vary. Rx only.
