Intermittent nerve stimulation instead of daily low-frequency therapy
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether switching from continuous implanted nerve stimulation to an intermittent schedule can keep pain relief for people with chronic back and/or leg pain. You would be compared in a structured study plan to see if the alternate dosing works for you and is safe.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 99 years old
- You have used a permanently implanted Abbott PROCLAIM XR device for at least 1 year
- Over the past year, you have had at least 50% pain relief in the main treated area
- You had a routine device follow-up within the last 4 months and your device was reprogrammed at least once before starting the study
- You can do study tasks (questionnaires/pain check-ins, consent form, and follow-ups on the schedule)
- You must not have had certain recent changes like steroid injections, major device problems, other stimulators, or unstable pain medicine

This study tests an Abbott device that uses sensing and electrical stimulation to help reduce chronic back and/or leg pain. It also tracks pain changes and diabetic control using wearables and regular questionnaires to see if the system improves outcomes.
This study follows people long-term after they get an Abbott device implanted to help with chronic pain. It aims to learn how well the therapy works in real-world care over time.
This Phase 2 study looks at how spinal cord (or nerve-root) stimulation affects pain signals in the brain and body. You may qualify if you already have a stimulator set to a comfort mode that avoids “tingling” sensations.
This trial tests a new type of spinal cord stimulation for people with long-term nerve pain that hasn't improved with other treatments. The goal is to see if this special stimulation pattern can reduce pain better than standard care.
This trial tests a new type of spinal cord stimulator that automatically adjusts to your pain signals. It may help people with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) who have not tried this kind of therapy before.
This trial tests if spinal cord stimulation (a device that sends mild electrical pulses to your spinal cord) can help relieve long-lasting nerve pain in your arm or leg that hasn't gotten better with other treatments. It's for people who have had this pain for at least 6 months and are willing to try a new approach.
