The leads are then connected to a battery system which sends an electrical signal to the leads which interrupt the pain signals traveling to and from the brain. Since your brain doesn\u2019t receive those pain signals, you don\u2019t feel the pain.<\/p>\n This trial procedure is an outpatient procedure done under light sedation with local anesthetic but does not require general anesthesia.<\/p>\n Because SCS requires precise placement, patients will have a trial placement first. The trial uses one or two temporary leads, which we place in our office, and an external battery. We will have you use the trial setup for five days. If it relieves your pain, then we will surgically implant the device at a hospital or ambulatory surgery center. This permanent implant procedure requires deep sedation or general anesthesia, but patients do go home that same day.<\/p>\n For many patients, SCS is quite effective at treating pain, delivering the relief that other approaches have failed to provide.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ make_equal=”on” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”90%” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” custom_css_main_element=”align-items: center;” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.24.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.5″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_text_color=”#3f7fc2″ header_2_font_size=”55px” header_3_text_color=”#3f7fc2″ header_3_font_size=”55px” custom_margin=”||16px||false|false” header_2_font_size_tablet=”” header_2_font_size_phone=”42px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_3_font_size_tablet=”55px” header_3_font_size_phone=”42px” header_3_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_css_free_form=”selector em {|| color: #8DC63F;||}” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.26.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”2em” custom_margin=”||8px||false|false” custom_css_free_form=”selector sup {|| font-size: 12px;||}” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n A second option we have for patients who need help with nerve pain but who are not candidates for surgery is dorsal root ganglion stimulation, or DRG.
