Global Real-World Study on Long-Term Use of Boston Scientific Neurostimulation Systems for Pain Relief

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are conducting a global, prospective, multi-center observational study to gather real-world data on the long-term effectiveness, economic value, and technical performance of Boston Scientifics commercially approved neurostimulation systems for pain management. The study focuses on patients using these neurostimulation devices according to their approved instructions for use in routine clinical practice. Participants will first undergo a neurostimulation trial period using any commercially approved Boston Scientific neurostimulator for pain. Those who experience a positive outcome from this trial may then receive a permanent implant of the neurostimulation system. Treatment customization will be guided by the investigators judgment and routine care practices at each site. During the study, participants will be observed to collect information on clinical outcomes, technical device performance, and economic factors related to neurostimulation therapy. The research team will monitor participants over the long term to assess how well the therapy manages pain and its associated benefits. The study is expected to continue until May 2035, with ongoing follow-up and data collection throughout this period.
