Peripheral Nerve Stimulation for Facial Pain Using Wireless Devices.
Progress in Neurological Surgery 2020 July 30
Since its original introduction several decades ago, peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) of the craniofacial region has been traditionally performed using devices intended for spinal cord stimulation applications with inevitably high rate of technical challenges and procedural complications. The lower invasiveness of recently developed wireless neurostimulation systems makes them much better suited for craniofacial applications. Here, we discuss the preliminary clinical data from several published reports and the ongoing multicenter prospective study of wireless PNS in the craniofacial region. Advances in wireless transmission of electrical signals may make wireless neurostimulation even more attractive in the future. Since most of the evidence supporting PNS for facial pain comes from small subsets of the population, case series and case reports, there will need to be larger, randomized controlled trials with cost efficacy analyses in order to validate the role of wireless PNS as the standard of care.
