A single-center retrospective chart review of percutaneous PNS for treatment of chronic shoulder pain.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The present IRB-approved retrospective chart review describes the use of a 60-day PNS treatment for shoulder pain at a single center in 60 total consecutive patients.

Background

Chronic shoulder pain affects an increasing number of patients per year and is especially prevalent in elderly populations. Percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) treatment targeting the nerves of the shoulder has been shown to reduce pain in prospective clinical studies and in analysis of real-world data.

Methods

Data were extracted from the electronic medical records of patients who had previously undergone percutaneous PNS treatment for chronic shoulder pain. Demographic data and treatment characteristics were summarized alongside treatment outcomes.

Results
