Trial Outcomes & Findings for An Implantable Microneuromodulator for the Treatment of Chronic Shoulder Pain in Chronic Post-Stroke Subjects (NCT NCT00567541)

NCT ID: NCT00567541

Last Updated: 2016-04-01

Results Overview

Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Question # 12 (rating pain at its worst in week prior to visit) was used to measure number of participants in whom BBPM provided any relief from chronic shoulder pain after implantation, as evidence by appropriate muscular contraction and/or paresthesia. BPI scale range is from 1 to 10, where 0 = 'no pain' and 10 = 'pain as bad as one can imagine'.

Sham BBPM Stimulation
The Battery Powered Microneuromodulator(BBPM) will be programmed for the first 12 weeks of the study to deliver short bursts of extremely low amplitude electrical stimulation at very wide time intervals to give appearance, impression, and sensation of therapeutic treatment. After 24 weeks, they will be reprogrammed to receive therapeutic stimulation.
