The latest clinical trial for the treatment of Trigeminal Neuralgia with the Stimpod was published a few months ago.
Â
There was a significant reduction in pain scores observed on the Barrow neurological institute (BNI) and Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) pain intensity score (p value of <0.05) before and after pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) application. The duration of pain relief after the application of PRF was up to 180 days in 15 patients, 181-300 days in 8 patients and 300 to 600 days in 7 patients. 2 patients had a prolonged pain relief lasting for 601-720 days.
