Özet:

 

The aim of this study was to examine the outcomes of patients who underwent Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) in our clinic. In this study, records of 16 patients who underwent SCS in the Algology and Neurosurgery Clinic of the Ministry of Health, Health Sciences University, Samsun Training and Research Hospital between 2015 and 2018 were retrospectively analysed. The pain levels of the patients before and after the procedure were evaluated with the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The mean age of the patients was 54.25 ± 11.45 years. After the SCS procedure, it was found that pain levels determined by the VAS decreased significantly (p < 0.001). Eleven (68.7%) patients reported that they were quite satisfied or partially satisfied after SCS, and seven patients (43.8%) underwent revision due to hardware malfunctions and post-surgical complications. Based on our study results, we believe that SCS is an effective treatment method that can be used to reduce pain.
