About
The purpose of the ESCAPE Study is to determine the extent to which epidural spinal cord stimulation (SCS) reduces arterial blood pressure (BP) in patients which chronic low back pain and hypertension. We also aim to determine the extent to which higher baseline BP (i.e., hypertension) predicts reductions in pain following SCS implant. This is an observational study of patients undergoing an implantation of a SCS device.
Full description
The broad research goal of this study is to examine the extent to which arterial blood pressure (BP) and blood markers related to hypertension and kidney function are reduced in a prospective cohort of patients undergoing implantation of an epidural spinal cord stimulator (SCS) for the purpose of managing chronic pain in the lower back and/or limbs.
