Mechanisms and Outcome-Prognostication for Paresthesia-based and -free Spinal Cord Stimulation

Paresthesia-based SCS(PB-SCS), with stimulating frequencies between 30 to 80 Hz that confer a tingling sensation. Three different paresthesia-free SCS (PF-SCS) modes that use frequencies in the range of 400-10,000 Hz include Burst, High Frequency stimulation at 1.2 kHz and High Density stimulation at 400 Hz.
