Pain Remission at One ‐Year Follow‐Up With Spinal Cord Stimulation

ConclusionsOur study demonstrates a remission rate of 22% with SCS at one‐year follow with a total of 19.8% of our total patient cohort having an NRS of 0. Greater decreases in PCS and ODI correlate with remission. Further, pre‐operative disability and opioid use correlate with lower likelihood of remission.
