Did tons of PNS in the L8680 days. Man did my boss make great money. Theatric placebo (cue drusso).
Crappy literature.
Anyone catch on to how new procedures are developed?
1. Company gets investment capitol.
2. Company creates a new procedure/device
3. Company hires KOL to tell us how wonderful it is.
4. Company funds KOL to do research controlled by company with poor study design.
5. Some folks start doing procedure and results are amazing.
6. No one talks about failures.
7. No one does independent research.
8. It doesn't work.
Pain is a bunch of ****** in pointy toed shoes trying to out do each other. Just check out LinkedIn, the bragging grounds where there are daily tryouts to become the next Timmy.
Effect of High-frequency (10-kHz) Spinal Cord Stimulation in Patients With Painful Diabetic Neuropathy bias is lowDo you think nevro scs works?
I use Nevro not infrequently, but IMO (not that you asked me) it is inferior to Abbott.Do you think nevro scs works?
The other way around.I use Nevro not infrequently, but IMO (not that you asked me) it is inferior to Abbott.
Especially now that Abbott launched Eterna, I am not sure how much longer I'll offer Nevro (or BSc). It seems I have more frustrated Nevro pts than Abbott.

I was poking a little fun @lobelsteve bc in my opinion this “new procedure” follows his steps very elegantlyI use Nevro not infrequently, but IMO (not that you asked me) it is inferior to Abbott.

I guess my unsuccessful attempt to suggest nevro scs follows the same path that you described quite well.I do not even know what is going on.
Tech is still the sameSeeing Curonix more visible now on social media and I know some physicians using it. I'd love to know how they managed to pivot. Is the technology different now? Anyone have experience?
Also, the story of the fraud is sad and fascinating. Did this one CEO somehow act alone to make a plastic stylet? Did no one else know? Were all the reps and other execs and engineers completely in the dark? Someone needs to do a long form deep dive on this story.
