Clinical Trial of MED HF10™ Spinal Cord Stimulation for the Treatment of Chronic Pain
United States25 participantsStarted 2021-11-16
Plain-language summary
This is a single-center, prospective, non-randomized exploratory study in subjects with chronic, intractable back pain and/or leg pain per the center's routine practice. The primary endpoint is the distribution of responders by 'lowest preferred pulse dose (PD)' setting, where a subject is a responder to the lowest PD setting they preferred prior to entering the Observational period. The study is performed in patients who already have Nevro SCS devices implanted.

Inclusion criteria
. Have been diagnosed with chronic, intractable pain of the back pain with or without leg pain
. Have been implanted with the Nevro Senza™ or Omnia SCS system with dual leads, approximately over vertebral T8-T11, for at least 3 months, and are using the system with single area, continuous 10 kHz stimulation programs at least 18 hours daily, as determined by subject reporting and confirmation via device diagnostics, for at least 21 days prior to enrolling in this study
. If taking them, be on stable chronic pain medications, as determined by the Investigator, for at least 28 days prior to enrolling in the study and be willing to stay on those medications with no dose adjustments until study completion or study withdrawal, whichever comes first.
. Be 18 years of age or older at the time of enrollment
. Be willing and able to comply with study-related requirements, procedures, and visits
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
