Patients who present to pain clinics with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) typically have debilitating pain, including hyperalgesia and allodynia, and additional substantial quality of life concerns related to the motor and autonomic-related symptoms of CRPS. This article presents the use of a 60-day percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) treatment for three patients with CRPS Type I affecting the foot.

The SPRINT PNS System is indicated for up to 60 days for: (i) Symptomatic relief of chronic, intractable pain, post-surgical and post-traumatic acute pain; (ii) Symptomatic relief of post-traumatic pain; and (iii) Symptomatic relief of post-operative pain. The SPRINT PNS System is not intended to be placed in the region innervated by the cranial and facial nerves.
Physicians should use their best judgment when deciding when to use the SPRINT PNS System. For more information see the SPRINT PNS System IFU. Most common adverse events are skin irritation and erythema. Results may vary. Rx only.
