Brief Summary: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of spinal cord stimulation using the Precision implantable neurostimulation device for chronic and intractable pain of the trunk and or limbs in patients who have failed treatment with an intraspinal infusion pump or other SCS system
Detailed Description: Chronic pain is managed by the sequential application of various strategies medications anesthetic injections ablation surgery implantable intraspinal infusion pumps and spinal cord stimulation For a significant number of patients however these treatments are inadequate or cannot be tolerated Those patients require another option for pain relief

The therapy afforded by spinal cord stimulators is dependent on overlapping paresthesia with the painful areas One of the leading reasons for explant of SCS systems not including device failure or surgical complication is the complaint of inadequate pain relief due to poor coverage of the painful area Mounting evidence suggests that the clinical efficacy afforded by SCS varies with each manufacturers technology For instance previously-implanted SCS patients report more complete coverage better pain relief and a more pleasant sensation associated with the paresthesia of the Precision system The tight lead spacing and current fractionalization achievable with the Precision system may provide pain relief after failure with another SCS system

This study will assess pain relief with the Precision system for patients with chronic intractable pain who are refractory to treatment with other types of SCS systems andor implantable intraspinal infusion pumps Because Precision allows unique programming combinations not possible with other systems it is expected that subjects will enjoy significant pain relief
