Safety and Effectiveness Study of the Precision SCS Systems Adapted for High-Rate Spinal Cord Stimulation

To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of high rate spinal cord stimulation (HR-SCS) therapy as an aid in the management of chronic intractable pain of the trunk using the Boston Scientific (BSC) PRECISION Spinal Cord Stimulator Systems Adapted for High-Rate Spinal Cord Stimulation

Inclusion criteria

• Have been diagnosed with chronic, intractable pain of the trunk (NRS ≥ 5) which has been refractory to conservative therapy for a minimum of 90 days.
• Be an appropriate candidate for the surgical procedures required in this study based on the clinical judgment of the implanting physician
• Be 22 years of age or older at the time of enrollment
• Be willing and capable of giving informed consent
• Be willing and able to comply with study-related requirements, procedures, and visits

Exclusion criteria

• Have a medical condition or pain in other area(s), not intended to be treated with SCS, that could interfere with study procedures, accurate pain reporting, and/or confound evaluation of study endpoints, as determined by the Investigator
• Have evidence of an active disruptive psychological or psychiatric disorder or other known condition significant enough to impact perception of pain, compliance of intervention and/or ability to evaluate treatment outcome, as determined by a psychologist
• Have previous spinal cord stimulation trial or is already implanted with an active implantable device(s) (e.g. pacemaker, drug pump, implantable pulse generator)
• Have a current systemic infection, or local infection in close proximity to anticipated surgical field
• Pregnant or plan to get pregnant during the course of the study or not using adequate contraception.
• Be participating in another clinical study that may influence the data collected for the study
