In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Chronic lower back pain is a significant cause of disability, affecting 21-68% of people 60 years of age and older (source). Of these cases, 15-30% are attributed to posterior sacroiliac joint complex (PSIJC) pain (source), making it a target for treatment. Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) is a procedure that involves the placement of a lead under the skin with local anesthetic and electrically stimulating designated spinal nerves that deliver pain signals to the brain. It has emerged as a promising alternative to drug, injection, and radioablative therapies. Its use has been supported by previous studies of subjects who received permanent neurostimulation and experienced benefits such as decreased sensation of pain and perceived level of disability. SPRINT is a minimally invasive PNS system of interest due to its ability to provide long-term pain relief after temporary administration
