Do you mean to put that In magenta?

Nevro manipulated their data and is way less effective than they claimed.

Vyrsa pushes SIJ fusions which is wrong for the patient 98% of the time.

 

[Baron S]

Maybe this will save their sinking stock? Up 7% today, still down about 90% from ATH.

...been saying this for yrs.

Recent ASRA abstract, post implant:

The study population comprised of 237 patients , of which 67.51% were responders and 32.49% were
nonresponders.

Looks like they just analyzed all patients in a date range? I don’t see anything about the underlying diagnoses. I bet a bunch of those were implanted for axial LBP. Sayed is a big Nevro KOL.

Looks so. Underlying diagnosis seems to be narrowed down to lumbar based on intro, not sure if FBSS vs virgin/axial backs. My take away is 1/3 fail rate is not good.

What?

 

[BobBarker]

Vyrsa is a nice system. I have used the Vyrsa Pro (bone graft) mostly but have also done the V1 (titanium cage) and lateral screws.

 

[bedrock]

What?

This is common knowledge among practicing pain physicians.

Nevro has been a let down for me.

Having said that, I've had a few grandslams with it.

Real-world outcomes in spinal cord stimulation: predictors of reported effect and explantation using a comprehensive registry-based approach - PubMed

This study suggests that a higher educational level and being employed are associated with successful treatment outcome in patients with chronic pain treated with SCS in Sweden.

Here is the Abbott version.

Can you provide some information on that please?

Wow less than half hitting the 30% reduction mark at 1 year

 

[nvrsumr]

Seems to be similar to prior studies. I tell patients 50% are 50% improved

 

[MitchLevi]

Probably will be a day when these go away or are very difficult to get approved.

 

[DoYouEvenLiftBro]

You guys like Abbott system better?

Eterna is great.

 

[drusso]

I see some of you...

 

[BobBarker]

Yep, I’m the smiling, handsome one.










😂

 

[epidural man]

Like or hate Nevro, they have some of the best data available on SCS.

 

[Ducttape]

I see some of you...

question:

wass this on a live patient? looks like a model/manikin.

why wear the sterile gowns? esp if you dont wear gloves, or have hats or masks on?

and why does the guy most in front not have a thyroid collar on?

 

[BobBarker]

It is probably a cadaver. But that is too many people for one cadaver with two SI joints.

Isnt SENZA one of the very few Level 1 RCTs we have in the pain world for neuromod?
