Congrats to Dr. Niteesh Bharara on completing his first Dorsal Root Ganglion [DRG] stimulation trial! The Proclaim™ DRG Neurostimulation System is a new, non-opioid treatment specifically designed to help manage chronic nerve pain due to causalgia or CRPS following surgery or injury. DRG therapy may be able to provide you relief if you experience these symptoms in any of the following areas: foot, ankle, knee, groin or residual lower limb.
To help people with chronic pain finally find relief and live healthier, fuller lives, Abbott launched the Proclaim™ DRG Neurostimulation System. This DRG stimulation therapy involves surgically placing a stimulator that targets the dorsal root ganglion to relieve pain of the lower limbs due to CRPS. Individuals have a hand-held iPod controller that changes the stimulation settings within prescribed limits.
This new technology has made a significant difference in the treatment of chronic pain. The 2017 Pain study found that people with chronic pain in a lower limb from CRPS experienced superior pain relief after 12 months with DRG stimulation. The numbers speak for themselves:
