Neuromodulation for Peripheral Neuropathy vs Mononeuropathy

In this insightful lecture, Dr. Leonardo Kapural reflects on 13 years of contributions to the Mediterranean Pain Forum and presents cutting-edge advancements in neuromodulation. Highlighting data from multiple studies, including magnetic and high-frequency peripheral nerve stimulation, the talk explores non-invasive alternatives to medication for neuropathic and diabetic pain, mononeuropathy, and post-amputation pain. With comparisons to traditional drugs like gabapentin, the speaker emphasizes the greater efficacy and patient satisfaction of neuromodulation. He also traces the evolution of techniques from invasive surgical placements to modern ultrasound-guided approaches and compact external stimulators, calling for earlier adoption of neuromodulation in pain treatment algorithms.
