This study is a single site, prospective, observational trial utilizing a wrist-worn accelerometer to evaluate clinical outcomes of SCS and PNS in the treatment of chronic pain.
Up to 150 evaluable subjects will be recruited at this site on an ongoing basis. Evaluable subjects are defined as subjects that complete the End of Study visit. Each subject will be assigned an accelerometer and have data recorded for a seven-day period pre-implant trial to collect baseline data. The accelerometer will also be worn during the trial for a period of up to seven (7) days. If the trial is successful and the subject is implanted, the subject will wear the accelerometer for a seven-day period at least six (6) weeks post-permanent implant. The following assessments will be administered to subjects at the baseline (pre-implant trial) visit, the end of implant trial visit and the end of study visit (8 weeks post-permanent implant): the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) 11-point scale for pain; the SF-36 Health Survey; the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI). Subjects treated for neck pain will also complete the Neck Disability Index (NDI). Additionally, the subjects will be asked to complete a subject diary to record average daily NRS scores for days the accelerometer is worn.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Assess whether there is an increase in objective measurements of physical function in subjects after treatment with an FDA-approved spinal cord stimulation device (SCS) or FDA-approved peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) device compared with pre-implant. | A subject is considered to have met the primary objective if there is a statistically significant (p value < .05) increase in physical function. | Pre-implant to 8 weeks post permanent implant |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Determine if an increase in physical function obtained from objective assessments of data recorded by the wrist-worn accelerometer in subjects correlate with an improvement in subjective assessments as measured by the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). | Pre-implant to 8 weeks post permanent implant | |
| Determine if an increase in physical function obtained from objective assessments of data recorded by the wrist-worn accelerometer in subjects correlate with an improvement in subjective assessments as measured by the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36). |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluate the relationship between physical function and/or pain in subjects stratified into subgroups based on descriptive variables. | Pre-implant to 8 weeks post permanent implant |

The subjects recruited for this study will be representative of the population of subjects with chronic pain and a candidate for SCS or PNS trial. Subjects recruited for this study must be 18 years of age or older. It is anticipated that approximately equal numbers of males and females will be recruited. No subjects will be excluded based upon his/her race or ethnicity.
