OBJECTIVE: To investigate the differences in neural patterns between spinal cord stimulation (SCS) waveforms (60-Hz tonic vs 10-KHz high frequency stimulation, HFS) and their correlation to stimulation-induced pain relief.
METHODS: We recorded 10-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) in response to stimulation ON and OFF in 9 chronic pain patients (4 women, 5 men) during SCS surgery and examined the intraoperative spatio-spectral EEG features.
RESULTS: We discovered stronger relative alpha power in the somatosensory region and higher trend in alpha/theta peak power ratio in frontal cortex with HFS. We also observed a shift in peak frequency from theta to alpha rhythms in HFS as compared to baseline and tonic stimulation, where slower theta activity was maintained. Further, a positive correlation was found between changes in Oswestry disability index (ODI) scores (from preoperative to postoperative) and HFS-induced alpha/theta peak power ratio in frontal and somatosensory regions.
CONCLUSIONS: Altogether, our findings suggest that dynamic spectral interactions in theta-alpha band and their spatial distributions might be the first intraoperative neural signatures of pain relief induced by HFS in chronic pain.
SIGNIFICANCE: Examining electrophysiological changes intraoperatively has a potential to elucidate response to SCS therapy prior to device selection, reducing the healthcare expenditures associated with failed implants.
