Abstrakt: Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) thresholds are known to change with body position; however, these changes have not been fully characterized for both “constant-voltage” and “constant-current” pulse generators. This study aimed to evaluate and quantify changes in psychophysical thresholds resulting from postural changes that may affect both conventional paresthesia-based SCS and novel paresthesia-free SCS technologies.
