Help people with ongoing back pain return to work
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how to help people with long-lasting spinal pain (PSPS-Type II) get back to work. It may help by testing a plan for managing persistent pain so work becomes more doable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have persistent spinal pain syndrome type II (PSPS-T2)
- Your spinal pain has lasted at least 6 months and feels at least 4 out of 10
- Your pain has not improved enough with usual treatments (like conservative care)
- You speak Dutch (or can complete study steps in Dutch)
- You agree in writing to follow the study visits and instructions
- You should not have another widespread whole-body pain condition like fibromyalgia or rheumatoid arthritis

This study compares two ways of delivering spinal cord stimulation to see which better reduces pain in people with persistent spinal pain syndrome type 2. You would be assigned to one of the stimulation “burst” patterns and followed for changes in your pain experience.
This trial studies a targeted spinal cord stimulation therapy to reduce severe, long-lasting pain. It may help people whose pain is due to failed back surgery and who can safely use the implanted system.
This trial tests a type of spinal cord stimulation (DTM SCS) for people with chronic leg or foot pain caused by nerve damage (PSPS-T2). It aims to see if this treatment can safely reduce pain and improve daily life.
This study helps people with persistent nerve pain in the low back or legs who are planned to start spinal cord stimulation (SCS). It tests a careful plan to reduce (taper) opioid pain medicines using specific replacement medicines, while monitoring safety and pain control.
This study tests a way to place and program a spinal cord stimulator to reduce long-term (chronic) back pain. It’s for people whose back pain has lasted at least 6 months and is severe enough to measure.
This trial tests how much of the pain relief from spinal cord stimulation is due to the placebo effect. It is for people with ongoing leg pain after back surgery who have already tried other treatments without success.
