Spinal Cord "Pacemaker" controls Chronic Pain

Aug-13-09 Low levels of electrical energy, delivered straight to the nerve fibers in the spinal cord, can disrupt the signals that certain chronic pain conditions send to the brain, and replace them with a much more pleasant tingling sensation.

Developed by St Jude Midical, the Eon Mini is the world's smallest rechargeable neurostimulator. It is the size of a silver dollar and weighs only 29g (1oz). It sits under the skin of the buttock or abdomen, and its rechargeable battery should last nearly 10 years.

It can be programmed by remote control to treat as many as eight different chronic pain areas and, in doing so, it can get many patients with chronic pain off morphine and back into a semblance of normal life.
