Official title
Feasibility Study of the Bioness Battery-Powered Microneuromodulator (BBPM) to Treat Chronic Shoulder Pain in Chronic Post-Stroke Subjects
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this research study is to investigate safety and gather initial effectiveness data for a new implanted device designed to treat chronic shoulder pain in chronic post-stroke subjects. The BBPM weighs less than 0.03 ounces and measures 1" x 0.1". It is implanted into the shoulder to stimulate the axillary nerve. Stimulation of this nerve may reduce shoulder pain, reduce shoulder subluxation, improve motion, improve function, and possibly decrease use of pain medication. CAUTION--Investigational device. Limited by Federal law to investigational use.
