The Specify™ SureScan™ surgical lead works with a neurostimulator to deliver electrical stimulation to the spinal cord to help manage chronic pain.

Spinal cord stimulation delivers small electrical pulses that disrupt pain signals before they reach the brain, offering relief. Studies suggest spinal cord stimulation may offer: Access on-demand education and training materials. Meet the Inceptiv™ SCS device, the most advanced system with closed-loop technology. Providing patients with:

Alternate leads, anchors, extensions, and neurostimulators are available through Medtronic. Neurostimulation for chronic pain is a therapy where low voltage electrical stimulation is delivered to targeted segments in the spinal cord area to inhibit the transmission of pain signals to the brain.

One or more insulated wire leads are inserted through an epidural needle or through a small incision into the space surrounding the spinal cord, called the epidural space. Electrodes at the end of the lead produce electrical pulses that stimulate the nerves, blocking pain signals.

Spinal cord stimulation (also called SCS) uses electrical impulses to relieve chronic pain of the back, arms and legs. It is believed that electrical pulses prevent pain signals from being received by the brain. SCS candidates include people who suffer from neuropathic pain and for whom conservative treatments have failed.

2025年1月27日 · Approval for the Specify SureScan MRI 5-6-5 and 2x8 surgical lead kits.

The leads deliver mild electrical impulses to an area near your spine. By interrupting pain signals between your spinal cord and your brain, the stimulator may help you get back to doing the everyday things you love most by providing relief for your chronic pain.
