Successful integration of interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation and spinal cord stimulation for chronic naive back pain

Abstract

Spinal cord stimulation for naive back pain is a therapeutic option that is rarely considered, especially when conventional stimulation parameters are used. Interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation program is another less feasible but effective therapeutic approach for the management of chronic pain that is not usually used in conjunction with interventional procedures.This case report presents a successful integration of an interdisciplinary pain rehabilitation program with an interventional procedure spinal cord stimulation using conventional stimulation parameters in a patient with chronic, predominantly nociceptive to nociplastic, naïve back pain.
