New Paradigms in Spinal Cord Stimulation
Dr. Peter Staats presents an overview of spinal cord stimulation from its origins, which include the gate control theory to the first applications of electrode stimulation for pain management. Dr. Staats explains that challenges of traditional spinal cord stimulation involved historically inconsistent clinical success and high failure rates — problems that persisted until the introduction of innovative technologies.

Dr. Staats mentions that recent advances in spinal neuromodulation such as high frequency, ultra high/low frequency, Nalu wave, and burst stimulation, among others, are improving clinical outcomes for back pain. These progressive techniques demonstrate the potential benefits of electrical stimulation for whole body pain.
