Spinal Cord Stimulator

For the treatment of chronic, spinal cord stimulation includes the stimulation of the spinal cord or peripheral nerve by tiny electrical impulses. An implanted lead empowered by an implanted battery is placed near the spinal cord. The stimulation is adjusted to fit the needs of the patient via an external programming device. The implanted device may be felt as a small bulge under the skin, but does not normally show through clothing.
